JCS Manzanita

JCS Manzanita JCS Manzanita is a TK-12 Charter School. JCS Manzanita serves students in grades TK through 12th. We offer three unique programs.

We encourage students & parents to partner with us in learning, giving students the opportunity to develop self-confidence as they understand their own strengths and weaknesses and become self-directed learners. In our Elementary and Middle Academies, students attend four days a week, with Friday as a learn-at-home day. While in the Home Study program, a student learns at home under the guidance

of a parent with optional Friday learning centers and field trips. Credentialed teachers create assignments, oversee the learning, and provide instruction in all of our programs. Our high school home study students have an Educational Facilitator and teachers that subject are specialists for each of the core subjects. JCS Manzanita, a better way to learn and thrive.
