The presence of alternative and charter schools, such as Tehama eLearning Academy and Lassen-Antelope Volcanic Academy (LAVA), provides families with more educational options beyond the traditional public schools.

Overall, the Red Bluff school district faces significant challenges in ensuring equitable educational opportunities for all students.
