School History

Altus Schools Coastal, formerly Audeo Charter School II, opened its doors for student enrollment on September 12, 2016, with a mission to revolutionize education. Designed as a forward-thinking model for reform, Altus Schools Coastal focuses on students who have been underserved by traditional schooling. By offering a tailored educational environment, Altus Schools Coastal addresses the academic and social needs of students who have not thrived under conventional approaches.

Altus Schools Coastal students have the flexibility to accelerate their learning, the support to catch up, and the guidance to graduate. Our teachers are available in the Resource Centers to provide personalized, one-on-one support as needed. Courses are assigned based on each student’s academic and career goals, developed in collaboration with counselors and parents at the time of enrollment. Additionally, a range of specialized Student Pathways are available to better align with individual learning needs and aspirations.

The 2023-2024 school year marked Altus Schools 30th year of serving the San Diego County community. During this time, Altus Schools North County has demonstrated success, operationally and instructionally, while serving the population charter law was intended to serve.
