File:  IHBH - ALTERNATIVE SCHOOL PROGRAMS

The School Committee will provide alternative education programs where these needs have been identified, where establishment of such programs is feasible, and where the proposed programs fall within the function normally associated with the public school district.

These alternative educational programs will seek to provide an ap-propriate academic, social, and vocational experience to aid these young people either to reenter the regular school district, move into another educational setting, or prepare them for successful employment.

NOTE:  In a School Committee's policy manual, it is often useful and informative to provide a brief description of the current alternative school programs and to state the Committee-approved goals and objectives for each program.
