Why Join an Academy?

An Academy is a “school within a high school” that offers structured, personalized learning through career-related classes.   Academy students have opportunities to earn college credit through Dual Enrollment classes and industry certifications. Academy students also have opportunities for field studies, classroom industry leader speakers, and summer internships which connect them to our community business partners. Academy classes are classified as elective classes and count towards graduation and Bright Futures Gold Seal Scholarship.
