Options For Youth - Moreno Valley

Options For Youth (OFY) is a network of free public charter high schools located in Southern California, dedicated to providing a flexible and personalized educational experience for students aged 14 to 22. Accredited by Cognia (formerly AdvancED) and WASC (Western Association of Schools and Colleges), OFY serves students who may be behind on credits, seeking a non-traditional learning environment, or balancing external responsibilities, with a commitment to helping each student achieve California state graduation requirements in a supportive and inclusive atmosphere. The school accepts and serves students with IEPs and 504 Plans, providing comparable services and specialized supports as required, with partnerships through "Partners in Special Education" for mild-to-moderate disabilities and related services. OFY employs innovative teaching methods including small group classes, online courses, and guided independent study, ensuring that each student's unique learning style and credit needs are met. The school stands out for its low student-teacher ratio, which fosters meaningful interactions and personalized attention, as well as its strong emphasis on family partnerships. Campus facilities are designed to create a safe and collaborative environment, free from distractions often found in traditional schools. Additionally, OFY offers unique travel opportunities and real-world experiences that allow students to gain practical knowledge while earning school credit. This holistic approach promotes both academic success and social-emotional growth, while maintaining full compliance with ADA, Title IX, Section 504, McKinney-Vento provisions for homeless youth, and providing specialized support for foster and justice-involved youth, making OFY a welcoming educational home for students from all backgrounds and circumstances.
