Comprehensive High Schools provide secondary students with an educational alternative that enhances the traditional high school curriculum. Students who attend a comprehensive high school will not only be able to select from the traditional academic and extracurricular programs but will also have the opportunity to pursue a specialized program within a Technical and Career Education Academy within this unique high school setting. In addition to being prepared for acceptance and success at a post-secondary institution, students who graduate from a comprehensive high school will leave with marketable skills and competencies now required in specialized businesses and industries.

Students at the comprehensive high schools have all of the same opportunities for academic studies (regular, honors, advanced placement and even dual enrollment). All athletics and extra-curricular activities will be available to students. What IS different is the emphasis on later life and career preparation. Students have the option of joining one of five career academy. These academies will give students an edge in their preparation for college level work in these areas, or will prepare students for the world of work.
