About Prep 4 Success:
Started and Directed by Maryum Delves-Opa, Prep 4 Success was established in 2008, through NIDC, to meet the needs of the youth, aged 12-25, in the Bronx community. Its programs are offered to students at Columbus High School Campus, 925 Astor Avenue, Bronx, NY. The program has two components, one for ninth graders and another for 10th & 11th grade students. Both are based on “Seven Habits of Highly Effective Teens,” by Steve Covey.
