METHODSCHOOLS

MethodSchools is a public charter school that is part of the Dehesa Elementary school district, located in El Cajon, CA with about 114 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 12th Grade. With about 3 teachers, MethodSchools has a student/teacher ratio of about 38:1. 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.

Method Schools is a network of tuition-free, public charter schools in California that specializes in personalized, independent study education. Serving students across various regions, the school utilizes a "blended learning" model that combines a flexible online curriculum with optional on-site support at resource centers, such as their location on Dehesa Road in El Cajon. This structure is designed to accommodate students who require a non-traditional academic environment, including elite athletes, performers, or those who simply thrive outside of a conventional five-day-a-week classroom setting.

The school emphasizes a student-centered approach, providing high-quality digital learning tools, one-on-one guidance from credentialed teachers, and a focus on college and career readiness. By offering a high level of personalization, Method Schools aims to meet students where they are academically, allowing them to work at their own pace while maintaining state-standard rigor. Through its integration of technology and personalized mentorship, the school creates a unique educational path that prioritizes flexibility, student agency, and individual success.
