Student Programs & Services operates four Community Schools - Eden Youth Center, Darwin Center, Thunder Road, and Rock LaFleche School.  

The Community School is a unique program that provides educational services for students ages 12 to 17 who are "at risk". The program is an alternative education program designed primarily to serve youth who are wards or dependents of the court or status offenders (incorrigible) and who are under the supervision of the Juvenile Court, Probation Department, Social Services Agency, or are expelled from a school district.

The program provides small classrooms staffed with credentialed teachers and instructional aides. Each student's academic educational needs are assessed and addressed through a self-paced, highly structured, individualized instructional program. The students in the program receive supervision and counseling services from Probation, Social Services, or community-based organizations.
