About Us

Welcome to the John Finney Educational Complex, a vital part of Vallejo's dedication to inclusive and adaptive education. Named after John W. Finney, a devoted educator and former principal of People's High School, our complex reflects his vision of offering second chances and support to students overcoming academic challenges. Focusing on credit recovery and alternative education, we provide an environment where every student can earn their high school diploma, regardless of obstacles. With the highest staffing ratio of all campuses within VCUSD, our programs are uniquely tailored to support all students.
