Kestrel High School is a free, publicly funded charter school located at 325 N. Washington Street in Prescott, AZ. At Kestrel, we believe that all students can succeed in many ways. We identify strengths and weaknesses and explore those ways in which students can be successful. Students are free to speak their minds, explore and take intellectual risks, and discover and become who they really are.
Our low student-teacher ratio allows us to individualize more and help those students who really need that extra attention. We like to expose students to learning environments to provide that experiential experience. Field trips to the Indian reservations, art, and science and history museums are critical parts of our curriculum. Allowing students to experience what is taught in the classroom is the type of environment our students strive in.
Focusing on the arts is also a component of Kestrel that is somewhat unique. Students have the opportunity to take classes such as Yoga, guitar, video/photography and theatre. An environmental focus is also stressed and students give back to the community through meaningful projects.
