Dear students, parents, guardians, and staff,

At the Aurora Alternative Learning Center, our mission is to address the educational needs of each student on a personal level. All students are unique and learn in different ways, but we believe that all students are capable of learning. We are committed to ensuring that all graduates are well-equipped with the skills necessary to succeed in the post-high school world with a clear view and plan for the future. Our intention is to support students in successfully graduating with their cohort of students.

There are two basic purposes of the Aurora Alternative Learning Center. The first is to help a student re-enroll in the traditional school program by recovering missed or lost credits. The second is to provide an alternative path for students to earn a high school diploma by successfully meeting graduation standards at the Alternative Learning Center. The Aurora Alternative Learning Center has implemented alternative programs to aid in this process.

Our dedicated teachers at the Aurora Alternative Learning Center are focused on three main goals as they assist students on their path toward graduation. First, they help students earn credits to get them back on a timely pathway to graduation. Second, they help students recover credits in preparation to re-enter the traditional school educational program. Finally, and most importantly, they provide opportunities for success in education that address the individual needs of each student.

As we take on the school year, our students will face obstacles and achieve successes. If we all work together to help our students achieve their goals and progress toward graduation, their success will help them make the transition to life after high school and contribute to their success beyond graduation.

Thank you for sharing in this educational journey,

Jason Chappell
