CENTURY HIGH SCHOOL

Century High is a Title I public high school that is part of the Alhambra Unified school district, located in Alhambra, CA with about 115 students offering grade levels from 9th Grade to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 7 teachers, Century High has a student/teacher ratio of about 16:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

The school is specifically designed to provide an alternative educational path for students who may benefit from a more personalized, flexible, or smaller-scale learning environment than that offered by traditional comprehensive high schools. By focusing on credit recovery and individualized instruction, Century High aims to support students in meeting graduation requirements and preparing for post-secondary success.

As part of the Alhambra Unified School District, the school emphasizes academic growth, behavioral development, and career readiness. The campus serves as a vital resource for the community, ensuring that students who face academic challenges or personal obstacles have access to the curriculum and guidance necessary to earn their diplomas.
