A Safe Haven.
Our school serves students from preschool to grade 12, and provides a safe
emotional haven during their first school years in America. Students are grouped for
instruction by grades, levels of English proficiency, and their individual needs.
• Students in grades PreK-8 exit the school based on individual academic progress
at the end of the first or second school year to an elementary school of choice.
• High school students receive an individualized secondary curriculum designed
to help them graduate—from this school or another high school of choice—and
ensure a successful academic pathway to college and career.
