Countryside Community Day

Countryside Community Day School, located at 1084 S. Pratt St. in Tulare, California, serves as an alternative educational setting within the Tulare Joint Union High School District. As a "Community Day School," the institution is specifically designed to provide a structured and supportive environment for students who may have struggled in traditional high school settings due to behavioral challenges, attendance issues, or the need for a more personalized academic approach. The school aims to keep these students engaged in their education by offering a smaller student-to-teacher ratio and a curriculum tailored to individual progress.

Beyond academic instruction, the school places a strong emphasis on restorative practices and social-emotional development. The goal is to provide students with the necessary tools to improve their decision-making skills and prepare them for a successful transition—either back to a traditional comprehensive high school campus or toward graduation and post-secondary opportunities. By fostering a smaller, more focused campus culture, Countryside Community Day strives to offer a second chance for students to regain academic momentum in a safe and structured setting.
