School Level Requirements

In order for a high school to be acknowledged as an INSight Youth Corps, it must meet the following requirements:

  • Obtain administrative approval ;
  • Identify or recruit one faculty advisor and one community advisor for your school's INSight Youth Corps. These faculty and community advisors will provide on-going guidance throughout the school year. Once the advisors have been identified, a memorandum of agreement must be completed (see Appendix);
  • Commit to operating an INSight Youth Corps for one academic year;
  • Establish a process for deciding how many members will be on the INSight Youth Corps and the process for selecting those members (see Appendix for Application Template). The ISDH recommends that each INSight Youth Corps have enough members to create an effective and diverse group of students and recommends a minimum of at least 10 members unless the school's size and past experience demonstrates that this minimum is not realistic;
  • Ensure that any additional requirements and guidelines for membership with the school do not conflict with the minimum requirements set forth in this handbook;
  • Ensure that additional requirements of entities providing funding are being met;
  • Complete one project in Category A and one project in Category B;
  • Report activities through the INSight Youth Corps website and participate in all required evaluations of their programs.
