Abraxas High School is a continuation high school that serves
students who need an educational environment that is smaller, more
intimate, and more flexible than what is typically found at
comprehensive high schools.
Abraxas students typically select this school because they are at
risk of not receiving a high school diploma, and they believe that Abraxas can help to make that goal a reality.
Those who enroll at Abraxas High School are usually 16
years old or older, and voluntarily choose to attend this school
because they and their parents appreciate the unique opportunities
that Abraxas makes possible.
Abraxas students can expect to find:
·
A
quality program of instruction leading to a high school diploma.
·
Rigorous
academic performance standards.
·
Instruction
that addresses the Poway
Unified School District academic
standards and that helps students pass the California High School
Exit Exam.
·
Smaller
class sizes.
·
Various
instructional strategies that include open entry/open exit into the
school and classes, alternative options to earn elective credits, a
shortened school day when appropriate, and work/study options.

issues confronting students.
