High School Academies

GreenTree Preparatory Academy offers three high-school academies, from which students choose their academic focus. Each academy focuses on its specialty area in relation to both core course and elective offerings. The three academies offered are:

Katherine Johnson Academy of College Preparation

Students engage in rigorous college preparatory courses, including access to early-college high school (ECHS) or dual enrollment programs.

Charles Drew Academy of Science, Technology, Engineering, & Mathematics

Students engage in an interdisciplinary, hands-on, and project-based learning curriculum, including access to apprenticeships and internships.

Michelle Obama Academy of Business, Law, & Social Justice

Students engage in a sequence in business, law, and social justice, including access to community projects, service learning, and internships.

Preparing Students for the Future

Students at GreenTree Preparatory Academy receive core coursework and two academy exploration electives during their ninth grade year. By 10th grade, students are accepted into one of the three academies and coursework becomes more focused on their specific area of study. Students in 11th and 12th grade have access to an increased number of external learning opportunities including: dual enrollment courses for students in the college preparation academy; internships for students in the STEM academy; and service learning experiences for students in the business, law, and social justice academy.
