Programs

Are you ready for SUCCESS?

Our school serves first-time ninth graders who have been held back at least twice in elementary and/ or middle school.  We also serve students who have attended high school for at least one year and are looking for a fresh start and a new opportunity to complete their high school diploma.  We know that all students, regardless of their past experiences in school, can be successful.  Our school is designed to help students get back on track and to graduate ready for college and careers.

Everyone in our community works together to provide a safe, supportive, and academically rewarding experience for students.   Our team is made up of Department of Education and Good Shepherd Services staff.
