School Accountability Report Card

School Accountability Report Card (SARC)

Independent Study Program

Paradise eLearning Academy is an independent study program located on the Paradise High School campus.

LCAP

What is LCAP?

Public schools in California receive funding from the state via the Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF). How each district decides to spend that money is written up in their Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP).

Paradise Unified School District develops an LCAP each year with the input of all stakeholders (parents, community, students, staff, etc.). In addition, each school within PUSD creates their own LCAP which are given to the district LCAP committees as input for the district's plan.

Flexible Hours

Students access online classes and course content 24/7 from any location with an internet connection. Individualized, independent study instruction and assessment are provided online or on campus by credentialed teachers.

Open Lab on Campus

Paradise eLearning Academy students are welcome to attend Open Lab sessions five days a week on the PHS campus. Students may access courses, do quiet study or receive direct help from teachers.
