Beach High School
Grades served: High school and beyond
Operated by Wes Beach, a visionary former public school teacher, Beach High School offers high school students freedom to find their own educational path. If you have a child with a very independent learning style, Beach High School may be for you. “Enroll” can simply mean you sign up your child and Wes helps him or her create a high school transcript by writing an essay describing his interests and experiences during the high school years. Support is also offered if a family desires to keep a child enrolled for longer.
