Ombudsman Educational Services offers an alternate route to graduation for students who are at risk of dropping out of school.
Some students drop out of school to care for children or to work.
Some have missed too much school and worry they are too far behind to catch up.
Others are not comfortable in large classes. No matter what challenges they face, students can find academic success through Ombudsman's alternative program.
Ombudsman provides an alternative middle and high school program for students who learn better in a non-traditional classroom setting and want an alternate route to high school graduation.
