School Overview

ALC (Area Learning Center) Secondary Extended Programs is an alternative education initiative operated by Saint Paul Public Schools. Located on 7th Street West in Saint Paul, the program is designed to support students who may benefit from a non-traditional learning environment, offering flexibility for those who have fallen behind in credits or are seeking a different approach to completing their secondary education.

The program functions as a bridge to success, providing personalized academic pathways, credit recovery options, and individualized support services. By offering a smaller, more focused setting than a traditional comprehensive high school, the ALC aims to help students overcome barriers to graduation, re-engage with their coursework, and ultimately earn their high school diplomas.

* Charter Schools: A public charter school is a publicly funded school that operates independently under a legislative contract (or "charter") with a state, school district, or designated authorizing entity. Charters grant these schools greater operational flexibility over curriculum, staffing, and budgeting in exchange for strict accountability to achieve performance standards established in their charter agreement.

¹ National School Lunch Program (NSLP): The National School Lunch Program is a federally assisted meal program operating in public and nonprofit private schools. It provides nutritionally balanced, low-cost or free lunches to eligible children each school day based on household income thresholds or community eligibility options (CEO).

Title I Program Overview: Title I, Part A of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) allocates federal financial assistance to local educational agencies and public schools with high percentages of children from low-income families to help ensure that all children meet challenging state academic standards.
