TLC is a K-12 Public Hybrid Homeschool
We incorporate both school and parent involvement in educating students. Families can choose between a 100% homeschool program, or a hybrid program, with 3 days at school and 2 days at home.
Our History
Our History
In May 2004, the San Diego Unified School District approved The Learning Choice Academy and authorized it to serve students in grades K–12. Currently, TLC has charters for all three school sites with sponsors from local districts including Chula Vista Elementary School District, Grossmont Union High School District, and San Diego Unified School District.

Our Mission
Our Mission
- To empower students to reach their full potential by providing choice in education within collaborative triads of parents, students, and school.
- A California Charter School
- Charter schools have several benefits, including allowing students throughout San Diego County and any neighboring counties to enroll without special paperwork, offering a wider variety of curriculum to students than is typically available to home-schooling parents, offering enrichment opportunities not offered in other public schools, and allowing students to learn using innovative approaches. As a charter school, TLC can offer each student an individualized program that recognizes their special needs, exceptional skills, and creative talents.
