Graduation Rescheduling for May 20th Ceremony - Now June 8

Thank you for your understanding and support following the difficult decision to postpone the May 20, 2026, graduation ceremony at the Lake Elsinore Storm Stadium due to wildfire safety and air quality concerns.

We recognize what an important milestone graduation represents in the lives of our students and families, and we are pleased to share that the graduation ceremony has been rescheduled for Monday, June 8, 2026.

Please note that the ceremony location has changed and will now be held indoors at:

Riverside Convention Center
3637 5th Street
Riverside, CA 92501

The evening ceremony will begin at 6:00 p.m.

To help make this transition as smooth as possible, previously distributed tickets will still be honored for entry to the ceremony. New tickets will not be needed or printed.

We appreciate everyone’s flexibility and patience as we work to ensure our graduates and families can safely celebrate this meaningful celebration together. We look forward to honoring our students' accomplishments on June 8, 2026.

The CBK Charter School is an independent study program and operates as a charter school under the authority of the Riverside County Superintendent of Schools.

Our school provides an alternative educational environment that is different from the traditional school that you may have experienced in the past. CBK Charter School is designed to meet the individual learning needs of our students in an independent study setting.

Our exemplary staff is committed to the success of every student. Upon enrollment, students are assessed in reading and math to determine appropriate placement in grade-level classes and to identify any special needs. Students meet with teachers who assist in developing an Individual Learning Plan (ILP) and setting educational goals. Parents are strongly encouraged to participate in these meetings.

Our Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) accredited program includes California Standards-based core instruction, credit recovery classes, Career Technical Education (CTE), and elective classes designed to help students develop their career goals and interests.
