Ashley Hobbs is graduating from Riverside Achievement Center. When Ashley Hobbs decides to do something – jump off a cliff, finish two years of high school in one – she does it. Hobbs, 17, a student at Riverside Achievement Center, graduates this spring as a senior after starting the year as a junior. The alternative program for students in Chattaroy’s Riverside School District lets students do their schoolwork at home at their own pace. They can access tutors, teachers and online resources along with textbooks when they need to, but they’re largely responsible for teaching themselves. It takes a self-directed, mature student to complete the program, said Janet Kemp, principal of the alternative learning programs at Riverside School District. Some students struggle to complete their weekly assignments. To do two years in one is extraordinary.
