UPPER SCHOOL

Upper School serves students 16 to 21 years of age through a high school setting with electives such as Film Production, Creative Arts, Culinary Science, Community Based Instruction, Theatre, Sign Language and Film Production.  This program balances core academic classes with vocational training and life skills. Classes are departmentalized. Students are grouped by ability and continue progressing in academic subjects while becoming more independent. Extracurricular activities include Student Council, cheerleading, clubs based on interest, and intramural sports.

We have several diploma tracts.  

HISET
