School Overview

Pioneer Secondary Alternative High School, located in Prineville, Oregon, operates as part of the Crook County School District. As an alternative educational setting, the school is specifically designed to support students who may benefit from a non-traditional learning environment. It focuses on providing a personalized approach to academics, aiming to help students who have struggled in a conventional high school setting to get back on track, recover credits, and ultimately earn their high school diploma.

The school emphasizes a supportive, flexible atmosphere where smaller class sizes and individualized instruction allow teachers to address the unique social, emotional, and academic needs of each student. By fostering a close-knit community, Pioneer High School seeks to remove barriers to graduation and prepare its students for life after high school, whether that involves transitioning directly into the workforce, pursuing vocational training, or continuing their education in a post-secondary institution.
