The Next Step provides a full-time academic program and has designed a curriculum that addresses students’ needs.  It is an ungraded school and students are placed in steps according to their academic level in their native language, Spanish or English.  Content courses are taught in the students’ native language and English Language Learners have classes in English as a Second Language.  Classes are small; there is one teacher for every ten students.  We have two full time counselors as well as a full time Transitions Coordinator who provide wraparound services to meet the spectrum of students’ needs.
