2. Organization: The structure of the writing (beginning, middle, end).
3. Voice: The personal tone and style of the author.
4. Word Choice: Use of precise and vivid language.

By providing clear guidelines, the model helps students become more fluid, coherent, and creative writers.

TABS Program: Truancy Abatement and Burglary Suppression

A dedicated group, including four Milwaukee police officers, two school liaisons, and a social worker, work together to identify and assist truant students. Officers patrol during school hours, escort truants to designated centers, and inform parents to pick up their children. The social worker conducts follow-up activities with habitual truants and their families.
