The Education Corps (TEC) is a charter school with four campuses: Saito High School/South LA, Pico Union, and Gateway Cities (Long Beach). Each campus is a small learning community with approximately 100-130 students. Class sizes are small (15-20 students per class) and have caring teachers that are willing to work with students to help them catch back up. Since 1996, the Saito High School/South LA campus has been partnering with the Los Angeles Conservation Corps, which provides students with a variety of wrap-around services, such as paid job training in the field of conservation, counseling and case management. The campus is named after Bruce Saito, the longtime executive director of the Los Angeles Conservation Corps and current director of the California Conservation Corps. TEC Pico Union also partners with Los Angeles Conservation Corps as well as artworx, which provides students with vocational training in the arts through its music and fashion academy. Our newest TEC campus is located in Long Beach (Gateway Cities) and partners with Conservation Corps of Long Beach.
The Education Corps has campuses in the communities listed below. All campuses are for young adults (students 18 to 24 years old). If you are interested in enrolling, call one of the campuses below near you and ask for the principal. New classes generally start every three months. |
