Urban Corps of San Diego County Charter opened in 2011 to serve students in 9th through 12th grades with an opportunity that is completely different from traditional schools. The school offers students the chance to work while obtaining their high school. The work is often on the job training in a field of interest, which helps students decide more on their futures. The majority of the students attending the school dropped out of school and are now returning. The school offers a variety of activities and help to ensure the success of each student.
The school does not provide any student clubs, sports, or extra curricular activities but centers on job training and achieving a high school diploma.
Both parents and students are very pleased that the school opened in their area to provide a second chance for many that for whatever reason did not obtain their high school diploma. Most stated that teachers are very supportive and want to see each student succeed.
