About Us
Students Served.......…..are disruptive students who have received multiple suspensions, are eligible for expulsion, or have been expelled from school.

Program Goals...........…to provide students techniques to improve decision making skills related to school, home, and community; to improve student compliance with school/district discipline codes; to improve/maintain school attendance; to improve/maintain academic performance; to transfer successfully to home school/work/other alternative.
Alternative Education Plan (AEP)…will be developed by the district, the student, the parent, and the ROE Alternative Program staff prior to the student’s enrollment in the program. The AEP outlines the student’s requirements for successful completion of and exit from the program.
District Liaison...........….the district will identify a district administrator to facilitate the referral, authorize credit/course of study plans and student transportation, assist in developing the AEP at enrollment and transfer to home school, and confirm all school records are updated and maintained by the district.
Curriculum.................….learning activities will follow the student’s course of study as determined at the AEP conference. The student will be presented with a combination of traditional teacher-directed classes,
individualized instruction, and independent study through the use of technology delivered learning.
The technology learning program will be utilized only with our high school students to meet their
academic needs to recover academic credit. The high school student may receive instruction in
both required and elective classes/courses. The high school student will be involved in service
learning opportunities; the middle school student will participate in monthly volunteer programs.
Support Services……….will include social skills instruction (i.e., conflict resolution, decision-making skills, problem-solving skills), baseline and random drug screens, goal development and implementation, and academic study skills and strategies. Students and parents are assisted with referrals to Lake County community service agencies as needed to assist with drug education/treatment programs, Gang Outreach Program of Lake County, and individual and/or family counseling.
