School Overview

Jane Addams Continuation High School, located in Granada Hills, is part of the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD). As a "continuation" school, its primary mission is to serve students who are at risk of not graduating, often due to credit deficiencies, personal challenges, or the need for a more flexible, individualized learning environment. The school provides a smaller, more supportive setting compared to a traditional comprehensive high school, allowing students to work at their own pace to recover credits and complete the requirements necessary for a high school diploma.

Beyond academics, the school focuses on the social-emotional well-being of its students, offering smaller class sizes and personalized attention from teachers and counselors. By fostering a more intimate campus culture, Jane Addams aims to re-engage students in their education, build self-confidence, and provide them with a clear pathway toward graduation and post-secondary success. It serves as a vital alternative for students who require a different approach to thrive academically and personally.
