Welcome to Richard Yoakley School
At Yoakley, we believe every student deserves a fresh start. As an alternative school for grades 7 through 12, we use a restorative approach to meet students where they are—academically, socially, and emotionally—while guiding them toward success in school and beyond.
The Heart of Yoakley
The Yoakley staff is an encouraging and supportive team of educators who believe students can be restored on their path to success through a program of high expectations, safe and respectful boundaries, and intentional and consistent support.
Our team has a collective wealth of knowledge from various fields of expertise and diverse life experiences-all of which help us to better relate to our students and their areas of specific need. We pride ourselves in building respectful relationships with students as they learn to navigate individual life challenges.
