School Overview

**ALC On Track** (also known as the Area Learning Center) is an alternative high school program located in Saint Paul, Minnesota, operating under the umbrella of the Saint Paul Public Schools (SPPS) district. The program is specifically designed to support students who may benefit from a non-traditional learning environment, offering a flexible path to graduation for those who have fallen behind in credits, require a smaller setting, or are seeking a different approach to academic instruction.

The school focuses on credit recovery and individualized learning plans to help students meet state standards and fulfill graduation requirements. By providing smaller class sizes and personalized attention from faculty, ALC On Track aims to re-engage students who have struggled in comprehensive high school settings. The program emphasizes a supportive atmosphere that prioritizes student success, academic persistence, and post-secondary preparation, helping students get "on track" to earn their diplomas and transition into future career or educational opportunities.
