School Overview

Foothill Community Day School, located in Newman, California, operates under the Newman-Crows Landing Unified School District as an alternative educational setting. Unlike a traditional campus, the school is designed to serve students who require a more structured, individualized environment or who are transitioning from other placements. By maintaining smaller class sizes and a focused curriculum, the school aims to support students in meeting their academic requirements while fostering personal growth and behavioral development.

The school places a strong emphasis on providing a supportive atmosphere where students can get back on track toward graduation. Through its partnership with the broader district, Foothill Community Day offers resources aimed at credit recovery, social-emotional learning, and academic intervention. By prioritizing close relationships between staff and students, the school seeks to address the specific needs of its population, helping them overcome educational barriers and prepare for future success in high school or post-secondary pathways.
