The mission of Diego Hills
Charter High School is to engage students who are no
longer a part of the instructional plan offered by
the traditional high school. Diego Hills will develop
individualized "Personalized Learning" study
lesson plans which will enable the student to be a
successful part of the educational community and to
move toward graduation.
• Master basic skills

of technology
• Develop interest
in life-long learning
• Become a responsible,
contributing member of society
Have the feel of
a friendly business office. Students will have their
own appointment every week with their teacher. At this
time lessons will be explained and assigned. There
will be time for questions and discussion. Students
take their assignments home and return for their next
appointment, ready to be evaluated on the work they
have done during the past week. Upon satisfactory completion,
credit is granted immediately.
Consist of core curriculum
and electives. Students have their transcripts evaluated
and take assessment tests to determine the appropriate
level of instruction. The order in which the instruction
is offered is purposely done to maximize learning.
Computers are available for instruction and to assist
students with other classes. It is possible for individualized
electives to be a part of each student's educational
plan. Some group classes are offered as the need and
interest for them develop.
Have the same credentials
as other public school teachers. They enjoy the small
classes, usually 1 to 3 students at a time. They specialize
in providing encouragement and individualized instruction.
Enroll at Diego
Hills for a great variety of reasons. Most had left
(traditional public) school before graduation and now
again enjoy and appreciate having a new opportunity
to move toward that goal. Others have found the personalized
instruction and flexible time requirement suit their
needs better than a traditional school.
Our student's
ages range from 13 to 60. Some students
come to us to make up classes and then return to
traditional campuses. Others only need a few classes
to graduate. It is Diego Hills' ability to accommodate
each individual's need that attracts many to our
school's Personalized Learning model.
Very ambitious
students may take more than one class at a time with
their teacher's permission.
