SAN ANDREAS CONTINUATION HIGH SCHOOL

San Andreas Continuation High is a Title I public high school that is part of the San Benito High school district, located in Hollister, CA with about 91 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 4 teachers, San Andreas Continuation High has a student/teacher ratio of about 22:1. 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.

San Andreas Continuation High School, located in Hollister, California, serves as an alternative educational setting designed to support students who may benefit from a more flexible or specialized approach to learning than that offered by a traditional comprehensive high school. As a continuation school, its primary mission is to provide an environment where students can recover credits, stay on track for graduation, and gain the skills necessary to transition successfully into adulthood, whether that involves pursuing higher education, vocational training, or immediate employment.

The school emphasizes a personalized approach, utilizing smaller class sizes and focused academic intervention to address the diverse social, emotional, and educational needs of its student body. By fostering a close-knit community, San Andreas aims to re-engage students who may have struggled in larger settings, offering them tailored academic support and guidance to help them overcome barriers to success and achieve their high school diplomas.
