The Redwood High School Expanded Learning Program, in partnership with VUSD, provides a range of youth led and youth choice programs for the advancement of the students that we serve. Many of the Youth Led Projects support mastery of 21st Century skills and abilities for college and careers. Additionally, the drop-in based and student driven youth projects promote collaboration through student leadership in the school and the community. Furthermore, academic assistance is provided to increase knowledge and understanding of Common Core Curriculum and State Exams.
