Transfer High Schools

Transfer Schools are small, academically rigorous, full-time high schools designed to re-engage students who are over-age and under-credited or have dropped out of high school. 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.


Eligibility
Transfer Schools accept students who have been enrolled in high school for at least one year and choose to make a change. Each transfer school determines admissions criteria individually. Students, parents and guidance counselors can contact transfer schools directly to set up an intake interview or to learn more about the school.


Learning to Work Transfer Schools 
Many transfer schools have the added support of Learning to Work, which offers additional academic 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.
