About Options For Youth - Fontana

Options For Youth - Fontana is our Fontana 1 center on Foothill Boulevard, one of five Inland Empire campuses in a network of free public charter high schools serving students ages 14 and up. Students come to us when they are behind on credits, want to graduate early, have responsibilities outside school or simply learn better away from bells and crowded hallways, and enrollment is open year round.

Our blended model combines independent study, in-person small group instruction capped at 15 students and online classes. Teachers work out each student's plan with the family, and counselors, mentors and one-on-one support stay with students throughout. We offer more than 200 high school courses, including a full set of A-G courses for university admission, AP classes, American Sign Language, SAT and ACT prep and career courses.

Every student takes part in Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act programming, with a career pathways coordinator, internships, paid work experience and certification opportunities. Students can also join basketball, volleyball, soccer, flag football, softball and esports teams, student council and clubs, or earn elective credit on cultural trips at no cost to families.
