CABELL ALTERNATIVE SCHOOL is a public high school that is part of the Cabell County Schools school district, located in HUNTINGTON, WV with about 52 students offering grade levels from 6th Grade to 12th Grade. With about 6 teachers, CABELL 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.

CABELL ALTERNATIVE SCHOOL, located at 2800 5th Ave in Huntington, West Virginia, serves as a specialized educational facility within the Cabell County School District. Unlike traditional K-12 institutions, this school is designed to provide a structured and supportive learning environment for students who may struggle in a conventional classroom setting. Its primary mission is to offer a path to academic success for students who require behavioral intervention, credit recovery, or an individualized approach to education to remain on track for graduation.

The program at CABELL ALTERNATIVE SCHOOL focuses on balancing rigorous academic standards with social and emotional development. By maintaining smaller class sizes and a more focused curriculum, the staff works closely with students to address specific challenges, foster personal accountability, and improve attendance. The school acts as a vital bridge, aiming to help students overcome barriers to learning so they can either transition back to their home schools or successfully complete their high school requirements in a setting that best meets their unique needs.
