CROSSROADS HIGH (ALTERNATIVE)

Crossroads High (Alternative) is a Title I public high school that is part of the Mt. Diablo Unified school district, located in Concord, CA with about 33 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 2 teachers, Crossroads High (Alternative) 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.

Crossroads High School, located in Concord, California, is an alternative education campus within the Mount Diablo Unified School District. The school is specifically designed to support students who may benefit from a more personalized, flexible, or smaller learning environment than that offered by a traditional comprehensive high school. By focusing on individualized academic paths and credit recovery, the school aims to help students who have fallen behind get back on track toward meeting graduation requirements and earning their high school diplomas.

Beyond its academic mission, Crossroads High emphasizes a supportive campus culture that prioritizes student well-being, engagement, and character development. The school’s curriculum is structured to address the diverse needs of its student body, often incorporating smaller class sizes and closer teacher-student relationships to provide the mentorship and guidance necessary for student success. Ultimately, Crossroads serves as a vital resource for the district, providing an essential pathway for students to overcome academic obstacles and successfully transition into post-secondary education or the workforce.
