We provide alternative educational programs in order to meet our students’ individual learning needs. Our staff specializes in offering students and families a full range of instructional services to 1st through 12th grade students, delivered in a personal, customized, positive 1:1 or small group environment. We are a fully accredited, non-profit organization and are approved as a state of Washington Non-Public agency allowing school districts to contract with us for services to specialized students.
