The Academy Model
  • By dividing our students into 4 smaller learning communities based on student interests, Austin High provides a support system for each student that includes a counselor and assistant principal who follows students for four years, plus interdisciplinary teams of teachers at the 9th and 10th grade level dedicated to creating curriculum connections that match student interest.
  • Our academies are based on core courses, not electives. Academy courses include English, Social Studies, Math, and Science, but students still have half of their schedule devoted to electives, fine arts, world language, athletics, Career and Technology courses, etc. 
​ More information is available on our Academy information webpage. Each academy also has a website with additional information specific to their programming.

  • ADT - Academy for Design and Technology
  • AGS - Academy for Global Studies
  • ASI - Academy for Science and Innovation

Beyond the Core - A Variety of Choices

 ​In elective classes the academies are blended together, so students get to work with people who have varied interests. The academies help define us, but they don’t divide us. Everyone at Austin High can take courses or pursue endorsements in the fields they love – culinary arts, engineering, advanced science and math, our award-winning programs like debate, theater, or music, and so many more!
The following video presentations are just a small sampling of the variety of options available for students at Austin High.
