Last week AB-1316 was introduced, which proposes further limitations and restrictions on nonclassroom-based (NCB) charter schools.

In 2019 AB1505 revamped the charter authorization and charter renewal process in California. The new process relies much more heavily on how students perform on the CAASPP (i.e state testing).

School-sponsored, small group tutoring is available for 3rd-12th grade students needing extra support in Math or Reading/ELA. Reach out to your ES to see if your student qualifies for this program!

Portfolio Tips for Parents

We are going to be offering our summer school program this year but with some changes.

This program will provide a structured HS scope and sequence for our new incoming college bound students.  Students will receive weekly instruction in all of the core content areas.  They will be part of a “small learning community” of up to 25 students per school. 

CTE (Career and Technical Education) focuses on technical skills, academic skills and employability skills. We are excited to rollout our IT sector for 9-12th grade students which will encompass the following pathways: Programming, Network Systems, Info Tech, Wed and Digital Communications. Contact your ES for more information. 

For a long time, we have wanted to create and share videos of our staff and students doing what they love and learning along the way.
