Academics edit

In 2002, the school was placed on the No Child Left Behind expulsion watch list for the first time.[2]

In 2008, 32% of the school's seniors received their high school diploma. Of 63 students, 20 graduated, 20 dropped out, 4 received a modified diploma, and 19 are still in high school.[3][4]

In September 2009, the school closed due to a budget shortfall, moving the students to the Hartman campus of Redmond High School.[5][6]
