Enrolling Is Easy...

Thank you for your interest in pursuing an education for your student at Family Partnership Charter School. Our charter school serves students in grades K-12 who reside in Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo counties.

Family Partnership is a public school operating with public educational funds. However, public charter schools are structured quite differently than the traditional non-charter, classroom-based public school system. The primary goal of our charter school is to maximize personalized learning opportunities for students, and to guarantee that our students can master the necessary skills to succeed in the workplace of today and tomorrow. Family Partnership allows for wide differences in student learning styles, abilities, and interests, a task that is difficult to accommodate in a traditional classroom school setting. Unlike a traditional public school, parents "personalize" the learning environment to the individual needs of their children. Because of our school's unique system, a "one-size-fits-all" curriculum is not mandated, and parents remain the authority of any material affecting their children's attitudes, values, and beliefs. Through your Teachers, our Parent Support Department, and website, we provide training for our parents in curriculum choices, learning styles, computer literacy and other areas as needed.

Please attach/send a copy of your child's Immunization Record and Birth Certificate, as this is required for the processing of your application. If you would like an Immunization Waiver, please print your child's name on the front and sign the Personal Beliefs Affidavit in the box on the back of the blue Immunization Record obtained at your local center. We will then assign your child to a teacher as soon as one is available in your geographic area. Our teachers are credentialed teachers who oversee each student's educational progress. The teacher will contact you to set up a time to meet where he/she can explain the various educational options available to your child At that time you will make the final decision as to whether you wish to enroll your child in our school. Please do not withdraw your child from their current school until you have met with your teacher and are officially enrolled. If your child is in Special Education, the Special Education Dept. will contact you before you are assigned to a teacher.
