Description:
An area learning center (ALC) provides comprehensive educational services to enrolled secondary students. This could include a daytime school within a school or separate site for both high school and middle school level students. Students must be at-risk as defined by statute. Students served are off-track for graduation and are working towards completing their graduation requirements. ALCs serve students from more than one district. ALCs must also provide services to middle level students, either at a separate site or within their school.
