We believe in the academic potential of all students and
the power of a high school diploma.
​
Our on-site WASC accredited charter high school gives youth a chance to earn their diploma in a caring and supportive learning environment. On average, our students have attended three
other schools before joining SJCC+CS.
Congratulations Class of 2019
Serving our Community
We inspire youth to become positively connected to their community and be the next generation of
environmental stewards.
​
Paid job training in environmental conservation, zero waste, and construction gives youth
hands-on work experience through projects that create a more
sustainable environment for us all.
Creating Real Change
We make futures happen by empowering youth with the knowledge and skills they need to move from
poverty to prosperity.
