Abstract

A fight breaks out in the classroom; a student is perpetually truant, a young female becomes pregnant and cannot keep up with school. These are all candidates for continuation school. Since 1965, state law has mandated that school districts enrolling over 100 12th grade students make available a continuation program or school that provides an alternative route to the high school diploma for youth vulnerable to academic or behavioral failure. The law provides for the creation of continuation schools, “designed to meet the educational needs of each pupil, including, but not limited to, independent study, regional occupation programs, work study, career counseling, and job placement services” [1].
