Academics

 "When searching for a high school for my daughter I wanted a place that actually cared about her education and well being. City High gives the kids great opportunities by  giving them classes that will actually help them out in the real world. The internship program is a fantastic way to get the kids ready for a real job once they graduate and the fact that they get real life experience in the fields they want to work in is the best thing I've ever heard. I'm also so grateful for every staff member at City High for being completely involved in every way."  Parent of a Class of 2026 graduate

City High offers rigorous academics with a strong focus on technology as a tool for learning.

City Charter High School prepares graduates to leave academically, technologically, personally and socially prepared to succeed in the modern world – whether they choose college, skills training, or employment. 

A graduate of City Charter High School will:

  • Possess foundational academic skills and the ability to access, synthesize and apply new knowledge.
  • Have a comfort level with current technology and the confidence to adapt to future technology.
  • Possess the personal qualities needed to be a self-assured, motivated, responsible young adult and to possess the work ethic to succeed in post-secondary education or training.
  • Effectively navigate through a variety of interpersonal situations in family, community, school and workplace settings.

At City High, each student is challenged to explore who they are now and who they would like to be after high school:

  • In addition to traditional areas of learning (like Math, Science, English & History), students are exposed to life skills like Financial Literacy, independent study and teamwork and learn soft skills like discipline, patience, concentration, and collaboration to take with them no matter what they do in life. 
  • Each student has the opportunity to learn both in the classroom and outside of the classroom – in a real world internship experience, guided by a professional mentor.
