Pinnacle’s Tempe West Charter High School location is situated on Southern Avenue, in between Priest and 48th Street, in Tempe, Arizona. This site has been a constant success with enrollment, diverse populations, graduation rates, and achieving adequate yearly progress; regarding state assessment testing requirements. Nearly all students who enroll into this charter school, either finish and graduate with Pinnacle, or have gained the necessary credits, through credit recovery, to re-enroll into their original public school; which may be the desired goal. Either way, the goal of this organization is and will always be, to promote high school graduation, teach and model appropriate social skills, as well as prepare and guide individual plans for successful future endeavors; as students venture into the community as adults.
This site is designed to reach those, who may or may not have been successful in the traditional public setting. For whatever reason: small student:teacher ratios, pregnancy, credit recovery, or self-paced accelerated curricula; this online instruction proves to be the ideal learning environment for its students.
Our instructors, whether it is online or face to face, have chosen to work with this unique student body and educational format; as their experiences and determination to make a difference within each child is evident. The site staff is knowledgeable and attentive with special education, inclusion needs; once again, attending to each student, specifically. Trainings and professional development opportunities are regularly implemented for staff members to continue their growth; resulting in the performance of their students.
Besides the mandatory core curricula, Pinnacle Tempe offers various electives, as well as the World of Work program. This allows students the opportunity to complete the last few credits of electives through successful part time employment. Case managers are assigned to have contact with the student’s work-supervisor. Positive working habits are significant for the future of its students; and Tempe West advocates for early interventions and mentors as they prepare for their futures.
Please feel free to contact this unique educational organization, at any time. Enrollment is ongoing, as Pinnacle’s main purpose is to assist any student and family, who are ready and willing to make this high school experience a reality.
