LightHouse Holyoke is a community school—an accredited private program with public contracts, serving both district-referred and private-pay youth. We offer an inclusive, relationship-driven model that blends education with wraparound support, community connection, and real-world learning. 

Our competency-based approach meets young people where they are, centering youth voice and identity. Youth work closely with a personal advisor to collaboratively build a personalized curriculum, utilizing resources both within LightHouse as well as the larger community. 

At LightHouse, school becomes a hub of care and support—and the world becomes the classroom.
