Mission Statement:
To assist public school districts by providing innovative and cost- effective educational programs to students who have not experienced success in other settings.
Our Philosophy:
Alternatives Unlimited schools operate on the simple philosophy that all students can learn, although they may learn in different ways on different 
days.
The Alternatives Unlimited program is a full day that conforms to the local district school calendar. Times, however, may vary from the schedules of the local schools. Extended day, week and year programs may be offered.
Our Objective:
To motivate and instruct "at-risk" students, including those who have not been successful in a regular school setting, including those identified as emotionally disturbed or behavior disordered, in safe, orderly, and academically challenging environments.
ALTERNATIVE EDUCATION:
Suspension / Expulsion: Serves students who have been suspended or expelled from their local schools. Students may be in the program for as few as 45 days, a semester, or for the full school year.
Semester / Year Long: Serves students transferred from their home schools directly into the alternative school for a semester or a full year. These students are generally disruptive, suspended or expelled.-More Info
