5000 Role Models

Supervisors: Calvin Williams & Donquan Ware

Room 403

Vision - Each minority male student will graduate from high school, go to college, vocational school or the military and be positioned to become a contributing and self-sustaining member of society.. 

The 5000 Role Models of Excellence Project is dedicated to providing the support necessary to reclaim our youth. Adult male role models are trained to salvage the “at-risk” boys, who may be considered as candidates for society’s endangered species list. If any natural resource is threatened, our nation instantly initiates strategies or programs to save that resource. Florida panthers, sequoia redwood forests, buffaloes, whales, wolves, manatees, and bald eagles are all prime examples. According to statistics, the minority male child is an endangered species. Therefore, it is imperative that we counter this threatened extinction with programs of prevention, development, and acceleration.
