A Portrait of a Graduate is a framework developed by a school or district to define the skills, knowledge, and attributes/competencies students should possess upon graduation to be successful in the 21st century. It moves beyond traditional academic measures and emphasizes deeper learning, future-readiness, and community-defined success.

Our school offers a free public education to any middle school or high school student under the age of 19 who resides in San Diego, Orange, Imperial, or Riverside County. Any student who meets our basic criteria and desires a virtual school experience can enroll with us.
