Pacific Coast High School (PCHS) is a public alternative high school in Tustin, California. It is associated with the Community Home Education Program, which is for students in kindergarten through eighth grade. Pacific Coast High School was opened in 1995 and awarded full accreditation by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges in 2002. Pacific High School is unique in that it offers most of its courses through the Internet, from English and Mathematics to Physical Education. A wide spectrum of students attend Pacific Coast High School, from those needing basic instruction to students whose families want to homeschool to students that wish to get a jump start on their college education. Many students begin taking community college classes before graduation, and Pacific Coast High School has a partnership with Coastline Community College's Distance Learning Department. Other students choose PCHS because of their over full schedules. Some are highly involved in sports, dance, or music and this school gives them the freedom to work from anywhere through the Internet. Pacific Coast High School has a traditional school year, but offers select classes during the summer. Other classes include Art, Biology, many different types of language classes, Health, World and US History, Driver's Ed, Drama, Speed Reading, Note Taking, Web Design, Yearbook, Vocational Exploration, and Music Appreciation.
Pacific Coast High School's Environmental Awareness Club placed 1st in the first Edison Challenge, a competition created by Southern California Edison and USC to improve environmental awareness and environmental health.
