PACE CENTER FOR GIRLS TREASURE COAST

PACE CENTER FOR GIRLS TREASURE COAST is a public high school that is part of the ST. LUCIE school district, located in FORT PIERCE, FL with about 35 students offering grade levels from 6th Grade to 12th Grade. With about 2 teachers, PACE CENTER FOR GIRLS TREASURE COAST has a student/teacher ratio of about 17:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

The Pace Center for Girls, Treasure Coast, located in Fort Pierce, Florida, is a specialized educational and social services facility dedicated to providing a supportive environment for girls and young women. Unlike traditional public schools, the Pace model is specifically designed to address the unique needs of girls who are navigating significant life challenges, including academic struggles, social-emotional difficulties, or involvement with the juvenile justice system. The program integrates education with mental health counseling and life-skills training to foster personal growth, resilience, and academic success.

By maintaining a smaller, gender-responsive setting, the center provides individualized attention that helps students regain their confidence and academic footing. The curriculum is tailored to help girls catch up on their schooling, earn credits toward graduation, and prepare for their future post-secondary pursuits. Through a combination of academic instruction and therapeutic support, the Pace Center for Girls aims to break cycles of adversity, empowering its students to become self-sufficient and contributing members of the Treasure Coast community.
