School Overview

The facility located at 121 W. Tabernacle in St. George, Utah, serves as a specialized educational environment operating under the Washington County School District. The term "Post HS Self-Cont" refers to a **Post-High School Self-Contained program**, which is designed for young adults who have completed their standard high school credits but remain eligible for special education services (typically until age 22).

The primary focus of this program is "transition services." Rather than a traditional classroom setting, the curriculum is heavily centered on functional life skills, vocational training, and community integration. Students in this program work toward goals such as independent living, social communication, and gaining real-world work experience. By providing a structured, supportive environment, the school aims to help these young adults bridge the gap between their secondary education and life as active, independent members of the St. George community.
