schools of choice Charter High School/CLK-IT Academy

Lafayette Charter High School

Many of the students at Charter High are at risk of dropping out of school. Some have child care obligations, some are helping their parents run a household, others have jobs that make attending school difficult, if not impossible.

At Charter High, students can attend afternoon or evening classes. The technology-connected curriculum and instruction provide students the opportunity to progress at their own pace to complete the credits required for graduation.

Students are tested using standardized materials to chart their progress, and graduate as soon as they have completed the required coursework. Students graduate from Charter High with a high school diploma, not an alternative diploma. Almost every week, a student graduates from Charter High. Most of them would not have achieved this milestone if they had remained at their home school.
