Portland Opportunities Industrialization Center and Rosemary Anderson High School provides the highest quality services in education, mentoring, family outreach, employment training, and placement. Rosemary Anderson is an accredited alternative high school serving students who are looking for small classes, inspiring teachers, and more whole-life support as they work towards completing their high school diploma or GED. Each student receives individual support from our team of teachers and career training advocates, who works with students to find the best path forward in school and in career preparation. Once connected to our team, we continue to provide mentoring after graduation through the transition to college or career training, and stay with the student until the age of 25. Services include small classes, field trips, mentors, Sylvan tutors, counseling and social support services, employment and training programs, connections to internships, after school classes including yoga, art, drama and music, teen parent programs, and free breakfast and lunch.
