Metropolitan Continuation

Metropolitan Continuation High School, located in Los Angeles, is part of the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) and is specifically designed to serve students who may have struggled in traditional high school environments. As a continuation school, its primary mission is to provide a flexible, supportive, and individualized educational pathway for students who are credit-deficient or need an alternative setting to graduate. The school focuses on helping students get back on track by offering a smaller campus environment, which often allows for more personalized attention from teachers and staff.

The program at Metropolitan emphasizes academic recovery and personal development, providing students with the structure needed to meet state graduation requirements. Beyond academics, the school typically integrates social-emotional support and career-readiness guidance to help students navigate personal challenges and prepare for life after high school. By fostering a close-knit community, Metropolitan aims to empower its students to overcome barriers, improve their attendance, and ultimately earn their high school diplomas in an environment tailored to their unique needs.
