Community Learning Program
Minnesota Transitions School offers an opportunity for learners who are looking for a high school diploma but are missing credits toward graduation from their home school. The Community Learning Program combines great teachers, a unique learning environment, and students of all cultures who come from the entire Metropolitan community, resulting in a dynamic and effective education program.
The Community Learning Program uses learning circles as a way to offer you classes that you wouldn’t find in traditional high schools. It focuses on helping students pass the Basic Standards Tests, especially ESL students. Some of the circles focus on specific passions, such as art, the medical profession, movies, college prep, and other possibilities as well. There is also an Internet program for those students who prefer to study at home.
Classes are held at three convenient locations: one in South Minneapolis, one on the edge of the University of Minnesota’s Minneapolis campus, and one in the Urban Academy building in downtown St. Paul. Classes are offered six days a week, from 9:45 in the morning to 9:00 in the evening most days. You may choose to attend classes five days a week, one, two, or three evenings a week, or just on Saturdays.
