    About Us


    The Humanities and Sciences High School and International Commerce High School emphasize preparing adult high school students academically for postsecondary education and occupational education, incorporating the following areas:

    Social Responsibility

    • Producing knowledgeable and responsible participants in American democracy as part of the global society, with a broad-based knowledge of history, cultures, geography, science, and mathematics.

    Employability

    • Development of basic skills (reading, writing, speaking, and thinking in English, numeracy, problem-solving, and higher-order thinking skills).
    • Development of habits, attitudes, and values necessary for productivity.

    Lifelong Learning

    • Development of the ability to learn and adapt to changes that will occur throughout life after completing initial formal education.

    The high schools' objectives are attainable through a commitment to providing a proactive learning environment.

    Postsecondary and Occupational Education

    The content standards define the knowledge students should possess, specifying what thinking and performance capabilities they should master. These standards outline the academic content and skills students must master by graduation.

    Social Responsibility

    Progress in social responsibility for an individual student can be measured through portfolios and competency exams. Students gain a broad-based knowledge of history, cultures, geography, science, and mathematics.

    Employability in the Workplace

    Employability progress is measured by competency exam scores. Students must master standards at or above the national norm to earn course credit. They develop basic skills in reading, writing, speaking, and critical thinking, along with commitment to academic participation.

    Lifelong Learning

    The high schools ensure students develop the skills to be independent, self-directed learners who use the necessary tools for lifelong learning.

    The schools' missions and objectives are accomplished through a well-rounded liberal arts and sciences curriculum, highly qualified faculty, collaborative projects, and promoting diversity and tolerance. This helps foster a sense of global community and ensures academic excellence for all students.
