This replication was possible because of a federal Safe Schools/Healthy Students Initiative Grant co-written by Ms. Ryan and Mr. Rothblatt.  The Riverside County Office of Education was the grant LEA and the grant was known locally as Connect to Achieve.

In these days of tight fiscal resources, Redleaf Resources excels in utilizing existing resources for maximum efficiency.  A prime example is expertise in developing intelligently designed "needs-based" Master Schedules.  Jim Rothblatt has had years of experience at both the middle school and high school levels in creating student needs-based curriculum delivery systems, e.g. Master Schedules, with maximum staff input that met student needs and worked with staff strengths.  Jim Rothblatt has opened school with Master Schedules in place that were balanced and conflict free.  He has also created "a school within a school" using existing staff resources that addressed "at risk" students needs, without any additional financial costs and with reduced class size as compared to the rest of the high school.  "Alternative Education" is within reach of any and all students within any school system using existing resources.
