Community High School, located in Teaneck, New Jersey, United States, is a private high school designed for children aged 14–18 with learning disabilities and attention deficits. The school has been accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Secondary Schools since 2006.
As of the 2009-10 school year, the school had an enrollment of 160 students and 59.8 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 2.7.
Community High School was founded in 1968 in Demarest, New Jersey and was a pioneer in teaching learning-disabled students. It became one of the largest programs in the region to provide for students in need of special education.
Westwood campus and fire
In 1990, the school relocated to Westwood, New Jersey and moved into a former parochial school building that was affiliated with St. Andrew's Roman Catholic church that sat next door. Most students attended on tuition paid by the state, and the school bused in students from Northern New Jersey and New York City.
Community High School (CHS) is a public alternative school serving grades 9–12 in Ann Arbor, Michigan, in the United States. Located on a 3.2-acre (13,000m2) site at 401 North Division Street near the city's Kerrytown district, CHS today enrolls approximately 450 students.
Established in 1972, CHS was one of the first public magnet schools in the country, offering students a smaller alternative to the city's three large comprehensive high schools. It is one of the few surviving institutions among the wave of experimental high schools that were founded across the United States in the 1970s.
Unlike many public alternative schools in other cities, CHS is not restricted to a particular student population (such as "gifted" or "underachieving" students), nor does it explicitly emphasize one particular area of study over others. Founded on an experimental "school-without-walls" concept, CHS continues to offer opportunities to interact with the surrounding community, primarily through its open campus and its Community Resources Program, an avenue for students to design their own courses for credit through experiential learning projects in the Ann Arbor area. In contrast to many traditional high schools, CHS has been known for its small size, its open campus and downtown location, student participation in school governance and staff hiring, and loose attendance policies more similar to those of colleges than those at most high schools. The school has also eschewed many of the characteristics of traditional high schools, including interscholastic sports programs, valedictorians, dress codes, detention, hall passes, changing bells, mascots (aside from a rainbow-spangled zebra), and (until the mid-1990s) proms.
