Martin Luther King Jr. High School (King) serves between 65 and 80 students at any given time but enrolls approximately 140 students over the course of the year. New students are referred through a Student Study Team (SST) process with the site principal and counselor to determine the appropriateness of placement at King. The school offers a voluntary educational option for high school students who are at least 16 years old and in the 11-12th grade (though some 10th graders are enrolled on a case by case basis). King offers credit recovery, acceleration, flexible scheduling, a small learning community, one-on-one instruction, and/or addresses students’ special needs or circumstances.

As is common in other continuation high schools across California, King serves disproportionately higher numbers of Special Education, low socio-economic, ethnic minority, and English Language Learner students than the district’s averages. Over the past two years there has been an increase in intradistrict transfer requests from students in the Woodland school district.
