Cooperation, Collaboration, And Communication...

are the foundation of our Charter School. We were the 8Oth school 
to receive a charter from the state of California. Hart-Ransom opened its doors in
September of 1995 with 67 students and a staff of two. Since that time we have
experienced tremendous growth and have needed to add on additional staff
members. Every family, once enrolled, is assigned a credentialed "Advisory Teacher"
for support and guidance. The Advisory Teacher helps the family maintain their
child's school records and select appropriate curriculum through meeting with
the family on a regular basis. These meetings often take place at home, at the
school, or during various school activities. The Advisory Teacher's
main goal is success for the family in homeschooling their children.
