High School
“It is the goal of this Charter School to help a student become an educated individual, one who possesses a self-motivated ability to learn, a diverse yet well developed set of interests, and the desire to master academic and vocational skills to the best of his or her ability” - Plumas Charter School charter


Plumas Charter School allows students the ability to graduate in many different ways.

Project Study Do you have a specific area of interest? Are you planning to center your education around a specific topic,such as a trade, the environment, travel, starting a business, or the performing arts?

Project study allows a student to focus on specific area on interest. Successful completion of a project will culminate in graduation.

Credit by Exam Students can receive course credit by demonstrating mastery with a score of 75%  or better on a course specific exam. These exams will be given only under controlled conditions.

Conventional Course of Study Students can choose to pursue a program similar to that offered by a conventional high school.  This is the recommended option for students who may wish to transfer back into their district school of residence.  PCS students enjoy the flexibility to schedule and pace their education to suit their personal needs while at the same time keeping future educational options open.
