The vision of Klamath River Early College of the Redwoods is to create healthy and sustainable communities through transformational education.

The mission of the Klamath River Early College of the Redwoods is to increase the number of high school and college graduates who are grounded in culture, place and community.

At Klamath River Early College of the Redwoods, we use a "Whole Child Philosophy" meaning that we invest love and energy in all aspects of each student's development.  We engage and suport each childs's physical, emotional and mental health because we believe students learn best when they feel safe, respected and understood.

Klamath River Early College of the Redwoods uses a performance-based model.  Students are assessed and placed in appropriate levels based on their skills and ability in each subject rather than age-based grade levels.  Students move at their own pace and earn credit by demonstrating proficient or advanced knowledge in CA State and local standards.

In addition to CA State standards Klamath River Early College of the Redwoods has developed Local Standards in the areas of Cultural Awareness, Service Learning, Technology, Personal/Social Health, Career Development and Technology.

Klamath River Early College of the Redwoods utilizes "settle up" a restorative justice process where students and adults are responsible for fixing problems they cause for others by taking responsibility and compensating those who have been harmed.
