Stewart Creek at a Glance
Our Mission
Mission Statement: To provide students who have dropped out of school or are likely to drop out with a non-traditional learning environment in which they are able to earn a high school diploma and be prepared for postsecondary success.
Our Purpose: To provide any student with an achievable alternate pathway to a high school diploma, and post-secondary success, when a standard approach doesn’t meet their needs.
Our Promise: We believe that all students can learn. We don’t believe that one size fits all. We strive to deliver a learning experience that fits the individual and an environment that supports their growth.
Our Pillars: At the core are 3 pillars that form the foundation of our program:
1. Flexible: Some students need a different option. Featuring two convenient sessions – morning and afternoon – flexible scheduling allows enrollment that fits your life. Mastery-based curriculum allows students to earn credits at their own pace (up to twice as fast as traditional high school!) and rolling enrollment and graduation lets students start when ready and graduate with a standard, fully accredited diploma without having to wait for the end of the semester.
2. Personalized: Our program is built around the individual. Every student begins with an assessment that personalizes coursework, remedial assistance, and social support needs. Software-based assessments pinpoint strengths and weaknesses and help teachers individualize instruction. A personalized dashboard monitors progress and career and graduation coaches work with individuals on their unique plan.
3. Supportive: Every student deserves the opportunity to live up to their potential. Our technology-enabled model is underpinned by responsive, supportive staff and intensive wrap-around social services. Onsite specialists work to remove personal, social, and behavioral barriers while a host of other resources, including free public transportation, support our students ongoing engagement.

Success Stories
Shamiya
"No matter how much I told myself I couldn't do it, I actually did it. I accomplished it!"
Shamiya’s road to academic success began with promise but took a sharp downturn after the unexpected passing of her father. “At first, I was doing good in school. I was a good student, but my dad ended up passing away suddenly, and then school just really went downhill for me. I wasn't attending school much,” she recalls.

Jennifer
“I’m learning so much in the ROC program, including electrical, plumbing, HVAC and even architectural skills. I know it’s a great career and you can earn well, so I’ve always been interested. It was a great experience, working with so many different people, getting to work and learn things hands-on, building up my resume, all while getting paid.”
Erik
“I was a really bad reader. They told me to start doing the reading lessons. I started off slow, but my reading slowly got better. I started to learn new words, new vocabulary. I started to understand and then things started getting easier. After that, I realized I just had to pay attention, just read, and the credits start coming in. It felt good. Then I started coming to school more. That really got me straight. That’s the key. If you can read, it’ll get you through anything.”
Melanie
“You have the dashboard which tells you how far you have to go. It’s really helpful because you put your plan in, exactly what you want to do after graduation or any other goal you want to set for yourself. You have smaller goals, too, and one you complete one, it just comes off your dashboard.”
The only thing she’d do differently? “I should have just come here from the beginning.”
