Independent Study is a program offered by Santa Ana Unified School District through a student's neighborhood school. In order to be eligible to attend the Independent Study Program rather than the home school, a student must meet with his or her counselor and fill out a "Request for Action" form, requesting the Independent Study program.
Because Independent Study is a program and not a school, you must seek eligibility through your home school. Contact your counselor and discuss your options with them.
If, together, you, your counselor and your parents decide that Independent Study is a viable option for you, then your counselor will fill out a form called a "Request for Action." Your counselor will submit the form to ISP. Then your program of instruction to will be transferred to Independent Study.
Once ISP has received your RFA, an appointment with the Assistant Principal will be scheduled for a "intake meeting.
