TAMMANY ALTERNATIVE SCHOOL

TAMMANY ALTERNATIVE SCHOOL is a Title I public high school that is part of the LEWISTON INDEPENDENT DISTRICT school district, located in LEWISTON, ID with about 71 students offering grade levels from 9th Grade to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 8 teachers, TAMMANY ALTERNATIVE SCHOOL has a student/teacher ratio of about 8:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

TAMMANY ALTERNATIVE SCHOOL, located on Tammany Creek Road in Lewiston, Idaho, serves as a specialized educational environment within the Lewiston School District. It is designed to support students who may benefit from a non-traditional approach to learning. By offering a smaller, more personalized setting, the school focuses on re-engaging students who have struggled in a conventional high school environment, providing them with the necessary resources and flexibility to meet graduation requirements and work toward their long-term academic and career goals.

The school emphasizes a supportive, student-centered culture that prioritizes individualized instruction and credit recovery. The curriculum is tailored to help students overcome barriers to success, whether those challenges are behavioral, attendance-related, or academic. By fostering a close-knit community and maintaining smaller class sizes, TAMMANY ALTERNATIVE SCHOOL provides a structured yet adaptable framework that encourages personal responsibility, builds student confidence, and ensures that every student has a viable path toward earning their high school diploma.
