Overview Paragraph

At the High School for Excellence and Innovation, we empower our students by providing an abundance of opportunities for them to exercise student voice and choice during their high school experience. By building studentsÂ’ capacity to fully participate as community members of their school, we help them become agents of change who positively affect their homes, communities, and the world. Our belief is that regardless of previous challenges, every student can earn a high school diploma and be prepared to transition to post-secondary training or college to embark on their 21st century career paths.
