Olive Grove Charter School—Santa Barbara

About Olive Grove Charter School—Santa Barbara

Olive Grove Charter School is a tuition-free, online charter school for grades TK-12. We provide a voluntary alternative public education choice for families who want their students to be educated in a home or blended learning environment. Our online charter school enables students with different learning styles and family situations to get the education they wouldn’t be able to achieve in a traditional school setting.

Mission

The mission of the Olive Grove Charter School is to plan, monitor, and assist in the education of students TK-12 in a home or blended school learning environment enabling them to speak, read, write, use technology, and calculate effectively to become self-motivated, competent, and life-long learners. The Olive Grove Charter School will provide students with the necessary resources to achieve success and meet state standards in core academic subjects appropriate to their level. Additionally, students will become career/college ready upon completion of the program. This will be achieved in a collaborative effort with parents as primary deliverers of the educational program, certificated teachers and the community.
