Under the supervision of a credentialed instructor, students and parents have the option of using existing district independent study curriculum or designing their own learning activities. The content of their curriculum must meet all existing state content standards, as well as all state performance assessments. Paretn Designed curriculum is supported through a small instructional allocation to be used for the purchase of books and other educational materials. The materials purchased become the property of the district and are stored and the Wolf Creek Resource Center when not in use. Parents may also use a portion of the allocation to arrange and pay instructors for small group instruction, which may be provided in student homes or in school facilities after the normal school day.
Students meet with their teacher twice monthly.
Those meetings take place in the students home or at the Wolf Creek Resource Center currently on the Sierra Foothill High School Campus. The program emphasizes basic skills training and provides all wards the opportunity to return to the community with a high school diploma. Typically students are referred to the program from probation or expulsion from the district. The program focuses on basic skills with an emphasis on technology.
