Why is there an alternate school
rewona [7]

Answer:

Alternative schools provide educational options for students who are not successful in typical schools. Over the years, they have been viewed as schools where "bad kids" go, but that's not necessarily the case. Many students in alternative schools do not have behavioral problems.

Explanation:

Alternative schools have been established since about the 1970s to meet the needs of children and adolescents who cannot learn effectively in a traditional school environment (i.e., conventional public or parochial schools) due to learning disabilities, certain medical conditions, psychological and behavioral issues.
