High School

High school students are provided a New Jersey State approved academic curriculum, and the entire student body is mainstreamed creating a regular high school atmosphere. The curriculum consists of all academic subjects that are taught on appropriate levels geared to meet the needs of each student’s Individualized Education Plan. Approved academic offerings include: Mathematics, Language Arts, Supplementary Literacy Program, Science, Social Studies, Physical Education, and Health. Furthermore, students are exposed to a wide variety of electives geared specifically for educational growth including Computer Technology, Fine Arts, Building Trades, Culinary Arts, and Music.

Grades nine and tenth

The educational program in grades nine and ten focuses on the traditional high school academic classes as well as providing exposure once a week to a variety of potential
vocational areas including: culinary arts, building trades, advanced arts, advanced computers.

Grades eleven and twelve

The educational program in grades eleven and twelve segues from the traditional academic program to provide more focused transitional
opportunities in the previously mentioned vocational areas. Students select one or more of the advanced classes and seniors, whose schedules
allow, may take one of the classes for a double period four days a week

All students participate in the school-wide Behavior Management System. Earning points for appropriate behavior and participation in academic activities, students work toward earning daily individual rewards in addition to a weekly all-school incentive. The System allows a student’s behavioral progress to be objectively monitored. Coupled with the grades for academic work, student progress is reported to parents and child study teams through the report card.
