What happens if a student is assigned to the Alternative Learning Center?
This center serves Hamilton County School students who have violated school rules, conduct, and/or attendance related infractions at their home school. The principal determines recommendation for placement to the school after reviewing the student’s disciplinary record. This recommendation along with a review by the Department of Education of his/her record may result in placement. While attending the Alternative School, the student is not permitted to attend school activities or be on school grounds. He or she must also meet academic and behavioral standards set by the staff of the Alternative School. Long-term assignments to the Alternative School will be served at the Washington School. The Washington School is located at 7821 Hancock Street, Chattanooga, TN 37416. Assignments to the Alternative School (long term or short term) cannot be appealed. Parents or guardians are responsible for providing or arranging transportation to the Alternative School. For further information you may
