English term (edited): alternative high school student of region eight.

Alternative high schools are for students who have difficulty performing well in regular high schools. It is not possible to say whether the sentence refers to a student residing in Region Eight or a student of an Alternative High School situated in Region Eight. I would need to have more context to decide.

A little known movement within public school systems, the creation of alternative schools for at-risk students has been in existence for several years. Alternative high schools have grown nationally in both quality and number. These schools for both existing and potential drop-outs rely heavily on forming learning communities where both teacher and learner are empowered. Innovation and flexibility are usual practice in alternative high schools. These schools and other options should be studied and their key elements identified. Today's problem-plagued standard high schools could use new models for their delivery of educational services to today's youth.
