Monterey Continuation

Monterey Continuation High School, located on South Fraser Street in Los Angeles, is part of the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD). As a continuation school, it is specifically designed to provide an alternative educational path for students who are at risk of not graduating, often due to credit deficiencies, life circumstances, or a need for a more flexible, personalized learning environment. The school focuses on credit recovery, helping students get back on track to earn their high school diplomas in a setting that is typically smaller and more intimate than a traditional comprehensive high school.

By offering a specialized curriculum and increased individualized attention, Monterey Continuation aims to re-engage students who may have struggled in larger school settings. The program emphasizes self-paced learning, vocational readiness, and social-emotional support to help students overcome academic obstacles. Ultimately, the school serves as a crucial resource for students within the East Los Angeles community, providing the necessary guidance and structure for them to complete their secondary education and prepare for future post-secondary goals or career opportunities.
