EDUCATION AT JYA

Julian Christian High School is the name used on the transcripts and is also "doing business as" (DBA) Julian Youth Academy. JCHS is a fully accredited Christian school for grades 6 through 12 that annually files a private school affidavit with the California Department of Education. JCHS uses a home school curriculum published by Alpha Omega Publications. Each student is evaluated upon arrival to assess where she is placed within the curriculum. Every girl has her own computer station where she works on her individualized school program. The computers do not have internet access and are used only for school work. The staff is available to help the girls with their work and to provide them with individual tutoring.

JCHS has an open admissions policy, meaning a girl can be enrolled at the school even if she is behind in her education. JCHS also practices rolling admission, allowing girls to start at the school at any point of the year. Also, with the year-round system that the school uses, the child has the continuous opportunity to experience success in her education. If a student completes her high school degree while at the Julian Youth Academy, she can remain in the program by continuing college level correspondence courses.
