Alternative Glendale High School
At Student Choice High School, we provide a supportive, tuition–free alternative to traditional Glendale high schools. Our Learning Center opens its doors every day to students and families seeking a better educational experience. For students aged 16 and older, our dropout recovery programs focus on progress, confidence, and real outcomes, not labels or past setbacks. This is a place where students can reset, refocus, and move forward with dedicated support around them.
About SCHS Glendale Learning Center
The Glendale Learning Center is part of Student Choice High School, a tuition–free public charter school dedicated to alternative education pathways. Our location was built for students who need flexibility, personalized attention, and an educational environment that adapts to their lives, rather than the other way around.
We serve students across the Glendale community who are working toward earning a high school diploma through a self–paced, mastery–based model. Our Learning Center offers a structured, welcoming environment where students receive daily guidance from certified educators who know them by name. Every student here follows an individualized graduation plan designed to help them move forward with purpose and momentum.

Academic Programs at Our Glendale Learning Center
We offer flexible academic programs designed to help students reach graduation at their own pace.
Credit Recovery Program
Our Credit Recovery Program is tailored for students who are behind on credits and ready to catch up. Instead of repeating entire school years, students focus only on the specific credits they need. With individualized plans and flexible scheduling, learners can make meaningful progress toward their diploma while staying engaged and encouraged throughout the process.
Our alternative Glendale high school meets students exactly where they are, helping them move forward with confidence. Our flexible scheduling allows students to balance their education with work, family responsibilities, or other life commitments without sacrificing progress. Coursework is accessible 24/7, giving students the freedom to complete assignments at times that work best for them.
In addition to remote access, our Learning Center is open weekly to provide in-person academic guidance, tutoring, and mentoring whenever extra help is needed. We are dedicated to removing any barriers standing between our students and their graduation day.
