Templeton Independent Study High School (TISHS)

Flexibility To Pursue Your Passion

Welcome to Templeton Independent Study High School (TISHS), an excellent WASC Accredited high school. We offer unique opportunities for students and families seeking alternative options to the traditional high school program.

TISHS students meet with their teachers for one-on-one instruction once a week for approximately 1 hour. Our curriculum is a mix of both college prep and non-college prep courses. Each is individualized to each student’s needs, allowing them to achieve their future academic goals. Students can also take elective courses on the high school campus through concurrent enrollment.

TISHS students have the opportunity to take classes concurrently at Cuesta College to help them pursue their academic goals. Many students do this to help complete their general education classes before graduating high school.

Enrollment in Templeton Independent Study High School provides students the flexibility to work while earning elective credit through our Work Experience Program.
