School Overview
Chautauqua High School, located in Big Bear City, California, serves as the district’s designated continuation high school. As a continuation program, it provides an alternative educational setting specifically designed to support students who may benefit from a more flexible or personalized approach to learning. The school focuses on credit recovery and academic intervention, allowing students who have fallen behind in traditional credit requirements to get back on track for graduation in a smaller, more focused environment.

Because the school operates within the Bear Valley Unified School District, it emphasizes the importance of providing a pathway to a high school diploma for students whose needs are not met by the standard comprehensive high school model. By offering smaller class sizes and closer relationships with staff, Chautauqua High provides the emotional and academic support necessary for students to overcome personal or educational hurdles, ultimately preparing them for post-secondary success or the workforce.
