Agnes J. Johnson Charter School, known as "AJJCS," is a public, tuition-free, charter school authorized by the Humboldt County Board of Education to serve students in grades TK-11 for the 2023-24 school year, and AJJCS will add one grade level per year until it serves the span of grades from TK-12.
AJJCS is located in the northwestern portion of Southern Humboldt. The school community is in a mountainous, rural area along the Eel River. The school is located on the Avenue of the Giants, north of Miranda, and south of Fortuna. The school serves students of the surrounding communities including Weott, Garberville, Salmon Creek, Myers Flat, Redway, and Miranda.
Agnes J. Johnson School has always had very active parent and community involvement. The threat of school closure encouraged a very dedicated group of parents to propose the opening of a Charter School. This Charter School is the work of dedicated team players who serve the school community as Board members of the Agnes J. Johnson Charter School.
AJJCS serves students in TK - 8 in a classroom-based model and will serve fewer than 20% of the entire school population in grades 9-12 in an independent study model.
We are dedicated to serving TK-12 students at AJJCS by providing a strong educational experience with rigorous core content including art, agriculture, animal husbandry, creativity and civic responsibility with high expectations, inclusive environment, familial support, and various innovative learning opportunities all meeting the State Standards. Students will emerge self-sufficient individuals capable of self-expression, effective communication, problem solving, and critical thinking skills with ability to succeed amidst the challenges of our changing world.
AJJCS believes that by offering an independent study program for high school, parents who have chosen to homeschool or go outside the county for independent study programs will choose AJJCS’s independent study program where the students will be a part of a school community and have access to social interactions with peers and support in rigorous academics, rural agricultural preservation, and civic responsibility.
AJJCS is the work of dedicated team players who will serve the great school community as the Founding Board of AJJCS. Please join us for our Board meetings on the third Thursday of the month at 5:30 PM in Room 4.
