How Can GOAL Help?

2025 GOAL Grad from Pueblo West, Andrew Trujillo shares an emotional hug with his father, Jamie, GOAL’s Chief Information Officer. Andrew had lost all interest in education during the Covid 19 shutdowns. Five years later, he is pictured here in his Pueblo Community College cap and gown, having received his associate’s degree prior to high school graduation.

Annabelle Reeves not only graduated from GOAL, but she worked for GOAL as a paid Communications/Journalism Intern! Her work has been published across the state of Colorado. Annabelle also received one of ten GOAL Staff Scholarships — funded entirely by voluntary donations from the staff.

Not only have 1,755 GOAL surpassed the milestone of high school graduation in 2025, but they have also gained important 21st century skills including technology-based learning, working in a paperless environment, time management through self-discipline, and most importantly…

GOAL students, with an abundance of support, build a quiet but strong confidence—one that doesn’t come from things being easy, but from pushing through hard times. It’s a special kind of strength that grows when you keep going, even when life gets tough. When challenges show up, this calm and steady confidence steps in. A quiet voice inside says, “I can do this.”
