Abstract | This article discusses recovery high schools which are designed specifically to serve students who have been through a professional substance abuse treatment program and are working to stay away from drugs and alcohol. The schools typically serve multiple districts and are funded from both the per-pupil state funds that follow a student and what districts raise themselves. Nationwide, recovery high schools are operated as charter schools, schools within a school, schools that share a building, and stand-alone schools. In a school within a school, recovering students are in some or all classes together but remain students of the public high school with the same administration. In a shared building several schools operate, but each has its own classes and principal. What they have in common is a commitment to providing a safe haven and support for students learning to deal with addiction. (ERIC). |
