High School
Vision
The Personalized Learning Academy for high school offers a personalized educational experience for students in grades 9-12. In our independent study model, students have the opportunity to choose from our in-house, live instruction courses offered with digital curriculum or textbooks and a syllabus, or they can get instruction through our approved community providers offering both in-person and virtual options. In addition, students can sign up for concurrent enrollment to get the benefits of taking classes online or in-person at their local community college.

Our passionate and dedicated Sage Oak teachers partner with students and parents to create an individualized learning plan tailored to each student’s unique strengths, skills, needs, and interests. Our highly trained, credentialed Education Advisors create a four-year high school plan, pace out assignments, provide resources, support, and academically counsel students in college and career readiness to prepare them for life after high school. We understand that students come to Sage Oak at various educational levels. We offer accelerated education support for our students working above grade level and credit recovery for students needing to make up credits to graduate. In addition, Sage Oak provides research-based required support and programs for our students below grade level to help them achieve their academic goals.
While recognizing that students learn in different ways and at different paces, we strive to guide all of our students on their own personal, educational journey while on the path to graduate. Offering diverse and innovative curriculum, project-based, and concurrent enrollment options with community colleges, we aim to prepare students to be lifelong and independent learners who think globally, act locally, and civically engage with their community.
Curriculum and Assigning Work
Each student will have a personalized four-year learning plan that their Education Advisor will prepare. The plan will outline and guide the student through each semester and keep the student focused and on track for graduation. Our ultimate goal is to help students find their passion while preparing them for life after high school through college and career readiness.
The High School Personalized Learning Academy offers a wide variety of curriculum options and educational models to meet each student’s individual needs in a standards-based public school setting. Each student will be assigned a Sage Oak Education Advisor (EA) who partners with the student and parent to choose a curriculum that will challenge and engage them. Our Sage Oak Education Advisors will work with parents and students to select approved highly-quality math, language arts, science history, and elective curriculum to prepare the students for future success. Curriculum options include live instruction from credentialed Sage Oak teachers with engaging digital curriculum or textbook/novel courses, interactive science classes with hands-on lab kits, in-person and online community provider classes, Advanced Placement courses as well as concurrent enrollment options at all California community colleges. In addition to classes, all students are required to participate in local and state testing as assigned. For more assessment information, visit our assessment resources page.
