Mead Education Alternative Department Alternative High School

Alternative High School is a learning community of non-traditional students and instructors in north Spokane, Washington.

Classes are not held in secluded rooms, but are instead conducted in the stations occupied by each instructor.

The CORE program is a group-learning format involving independent projects and evaluation, group community service Field trips, and presentations, both school and community-wide.

The GSL program consists of weekly one-on-one meetings between the student and advisor, in which assignments are evaluated, proposed, delivered and designed.

This option is most popular among students who may have other full- or part-time obligations such as child care, college classes, or work.
