School Overview

City of Angels School is a unique, non-traditional educational institution within the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD). Unlike a standard brick-and-mortar high school, it serves as a district-wide independent study program designed to offer flexibility for students who cannot attend a traditional classroom setting. This includes students pursuing professional endeavors, those with medical needs, or individuals who simply perform better in a self-paced, independent learning environment.

The school’s primary mission is to provide a rigorous academic curriculum that meets all state standards while offering a customized path to graduation. Students at City of Angels work under the guidance of credentialed teachers through a blend of independent coursework, digital learning platforms, and scheduled appointments. By prioritizing personalized support and scheduling autonomy, the school acts as a vital resource for students across Los Angeles who require an alternative approach to successfully earn their high school diploma.
