In 1976, Youthnet's Skagit Alternative School first opened its doors to students.   Since that time, this program has provided an alternative high school option to the youth of Skagit County.   In 1993, the students and staff elected to change the name of their school to Emerson High School, to honor Ralph Waldo Emerson and his philosophy on education.  Today, Emerson School continues to offer a unique learning environment that facilitates both academic and personal success.  Emerson’s highly skilled professional teachers and staff are committed to providing a program of instruction that is responsive to the individual needs of each student.

Emerson offers students an environment in which they have the opportunity to learn in a way that utilizes individual strengths.  This coupled with a low teacher-to-student ratio provides Emerson students the opportunity to excel academically and in life.
