Continuation schools are alternative education institutions that accommodate students who are at risk of not completing their high school education. These types of schools help students who may face challenges such as economic struggles, troubled home life, or difficulty with traditional schooling settings. Synonyms for continuation schools include alternative schools, second-chance schools, and alternative learning centers. Alternative schools utilize various methods of teaching, such as hands-on activities, independent study, and the use of technology to engage students in learning. Second-chance schools emphasize creating a supportive environment that promotes academic achievement, personal and social growth, and emotional well-being. Nonetheless, whatever the synonym used, the primary goal of continuation schools is to give students a pathway to success and a chance to finish their education.
