Covenant High School Central

Covenant House Academy Detroit (Central Site) is a unique public charter high school specifically designed to serve students who have struggled in traditional educational settings. Operating as part of a network closely affiliated with the Covenant House Michigan mission, the school focuses on re-engaging youth who are at risk of dropping out, are experiencing homelessness, or face significant personal obstacles. The academy provides a supportive, trauma-informed environment where academic instruction is paired with essential social services to ensure that students can overcome barriers to their education.

The school is characterized by its flexible, personalized approach to learning, which allows students to earn their high school diplomas at their own pace. By offering small class sizes, individualized graduation plans, and a culture of advocacy, the Central Site seeks to empower students to succeed despite past hardships. Beyond academics, the academy emphasizes workforce readiness and life-skills development, aiming to provide its students with the stability, confidence, and tools necessary to transition into post-secondary education or meaningful careers.
