Supplementary materials are used to enrich the curriculum. All teachers and staff recognize that they have a responsibility for helping students. All adults in the school have some areas of strength, which they can offer in the form of counseling for the students. Each student is assessed for career interest with Choices, a software program. Periodic checks to determine progress toward graduation are initiated by both students and staff.
Information concerning different educational options is made available to students.
Scholarships awarded to graduates in 1998-99 include one Soledad Rotary scholarship, one Hartnell College Freshman scholarship, five Federal Pell grants and three Cal grants. There is some difficulty obtaining qualified substitutes. Some substitutes receive preference in being called for service. The regular teachers are very seldom absent for either illness or personal reasons. All substitutes have indicated that they would return to teach at the continuation school if asked to do so.
