P.M. Program

The P.M. program is an alternative program for students who have met junior credit and distribution requirements and have been in high school for a minimum of 2-½ years. The PM Program is intended to help those students for whom the day program presents financial, familial or social barriers. Some students are living independently of family or are significant contributors to their family’s finances, necessitating a full-time job. Others might find that the reduced distractions from peer issues and other aspects of the day program to be more conducive to their learning.

Students meet four hours a night (2:15 pm to 6:15 pm) and receive direct instruction in English, History, and Current Event classes. They are also expected to take courses in a variety of academic areas through PLATO – a computer-based, accredited program. Students also gain credit for work-based learning, taking physical education through local gyms, and performing community service.
