Unique Design
Report
We are pleased to announce that in addition to operating in-person year-round, City High will continue a 4-day model including a weekly flexible 5th day for the 2021-2022 school year. Thanks to the overwhelming feedback we received from students and parents in our Annual Report survey in June, we were able to gather important feedback that helped to inform staff and administration during the formation of City High's 2021-2022 plans.
Academic Approach
Report
Our approach to the high school curriculum is fresh and highly effective: clustering subjects into key literacy areas and then demonstrating how these skills are relevant. All students are welcome at City Charter High School, including those with disabilities and learning difficulties. We are dedicated to keeping all learners together (preventing discrimination).
Extracurriculars
Report
No two students are alike. So, we make sure to offer a diverse range of interests to keep them motivated and involved - because keeping kids engaged is what keeps them learning. Cultural field trips throughout all four years expand students' interests, open new horizons and create bonds with classmates.
Graduation Requirements
Report
When a student graduates from City Charter High School, they leave prepared for life - academically, technologically, personally and socially. Here are some ways we ensure this. Achieve PDE standards as measured by the Keystones, New Standards or approved Local Assessment. Attendance and punctuality are keys to academic success as well as success in the workplace.
What Makes our School so Safe
Report
Our priority at all times is to protect all students and staff from harm. We are proud to have earned an "A" Health and Safety Rating, according to niche.com. This is due to many factors including our robust facility security measures. But safety these days must also include things like meeting CDC protocols to prevent the spread of infectious disease.
