School Overview
Yreka Community Day School, located at 309 Jackson St. in Yreka, California, serves as an alternative educational setting within the Siskiyou County educational system. It is designed to provide a focused and supportive learning environment for students who may benefit from a smaller, more structured setting than what is offered in a traditional comprehensive high school. The program typically prioritizes personalized attention, social-emotional support, and credit recovery, aiming to help students overcome academic or behavioral challenges to stay on track toward graduation.
