Our school is a continuation high school serving approximately 227 students who are considered at risk of not graduating through traditional high school. We provide a supportive/holistic and structured environment tailored to the unique academic, personal and social emotional needs of our students, many of whom face challenges such as credit deficiencies, socio-economic hardships and other life circumstances that hinder success in a traditional school setting. Approximately 90% of our student body identifies as Hispanic, and the school is designed as a Title I institution, reflecting the high percentage of students from low-income families. This designation enables us to offer additional academic support and wraparound services including mental health counseling and other community resources.
