Transfer Schools
Transfer Schools are small, academically rigorous, full-time high schools designed to re-engage students who are behind in high school or have dropped out. The essential elements of Transfer Schools include: a personalized learning environment, rigorous academic standards, student-centered pedagogy, support to meet instructional and developmental goals, and a focus on connections to college.

Many Transfer Schools have the added support of Learning to Work (LTW), which offers additional academic and student support, post-secondary and career exploration, work preparation, skills development, and internships. These elements of Learning to Work are designed to enhance and complement the academic component of Transfer Schools. For more information about Transfer Schools with Learning to Work, contact a Learning to Work Transfer School principal directly.
