REACH ACADEMY

REACH Academy is a Title I public high school that is part of the Santa Ana Unified school district, located in Santa Ana, CA with about 43 students offering grade levels from 7th 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 6 teachers, REACH Academy has a student/teacher ratio of about 7:1. 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.

REACH Academy, located on West Santa Ana Boulevard in Santa Ana, California, is a specialized educational institution operating under the Santa Ana Unified School District. As a "dependent charter" school, it functions with a unique focus on providing a structured, supportive environment for students who may require an alternative to the traditional classroom setting. The academy is designed to help students recover credits, improve academic performance, and work toward graduation through a personalized and flexible approach to learning.

The school emphasizes a close-knit community atmosphere where teachers and staff prioritize individualized attention to meet the specific social, emotional, and academic needs of their student body. By focusing on smaller class sizes and targeted instruction, REACH Academy aims to empower students to overcome educational barriers, regain confidence, and successfully transition to post-secondary education or the workforce. It serves as a vital resource for the Santa Ana community, catering to students who benefit from a more focused, goal-oriented path to earning their high school diploma.
