School Overview

Dupuy Alternative School, located in Birmingham, Alabama, serves as a specialized educational environment within the Birmingham City Schools district. As an alternative school, its primary mission is to provide structured academic and behavioral support for students who may have struggled in a traditional school setting or require a different instructional approach to succeed. The school focuses on credit recovery, behavioral intervention, and personalized learning paths to help students remain on track for graduation.

By offering a smaller, more focused setting, Dupuy aims to address the specific social and emotional needs of its student body while maintaining rigorous academic standards. The faculty works closely with families and district resources to foster a supportive climate that encourages students to improve their attendance, academic performance, and personal accountability. Ultimately, the school serves as a vital bridge, helping students overcome obstacles and gain the necessary skills to transition back to a comprehensive school environment or successfully complete their high school requirements.

¹ National School Lunch Program (NSLP): The National School Lunch Program is a federally assisted meal program operating in public and nonprofit private schools. It provides nutritionally balanced, low-cost or free lunches to eligible children each school day based on household income thresholds or community eligibility options (CEO).
