The Fayette County Alternative Education program exists to serve the needs of middle and high school students who cannot remain in a traditional school setting.  The Alternative Program provides an innovative educational program, combined with a staff of dedicated administrators, teachers and counselors who are committed to helping students achieve their goals.

Entrance - Parent(s) and student will attend an entrance interview to determine if this innovative program can help the student address his/her needs. Each student must successfully complete the intake interview process. Once the student is admitted, parent and student agree to a plan of study, an attendance contract, a behavior contract and a parent responsibility contract.

Academics - A plan of individualized study will be determined for each student. This plan will direct the student toward his/her appropriate grade level. The Alternative School uses many of the same instructional modules and course guides currently used in Fayette County traditional school. Presently, the Alternative School cannot offer all of the courses available in the regular schools.

Attendance - Students are expected to be at school every day.  If a student is absent, his/her parent is expected to call the Alternative School office. This ensures that the parents, students and administrators are working together to help the student achieve his/her goals.
