Santa Clarita, CAGrades 6-12Tuition-free

For more than 40 years, Learning Post Academy has been the William S. Hart Union High School District's personalized virtual learning program for grades 7 to 12. We are a public school located on the Hart High School campus, accredited by WASC, approved by the NCAA and sanctioned by CIF. Coursework runs through Edgenuity and includes A-G approved, Honors and AP classes. Each student starts with an orientation and an individualized learning plan, then meets regularly with a supervising teacher to review progress, pacing and graduation requirements. Credits post as each course is finished, which helps students recover credits or graduate early, and juniors and seniors can take classes at College of the Canyons. Students can still join band, choir, dance, sports and other activities at their residence school, and our ASB club plans dances, talent shows and service projects. Families of students with an IEP or 504 plan share it at application so our team can review accommodations.
