School Overview

Mid Valley Alternative Charter sits in Hanford, a small Central Valley city in Kings County where agriculture and tight-knit community values shape everyday life. As a K-8 charter school, it offers families an alternative path, though its academic scores currently lag well behind state averages across English, math, and science. Families drawn here may appreciate the smaller, alternative setting and the continuity of keeping kids in one school through middle school, but those prioritizing strong test performance may want to weigh their options carefully in the broader Hanford area.
