Bronx High School for Medical Science

Our school offers a small academically challenging high school experience to students who wish to enter the fields of medical science and health. Science courses are embedded into all curricular areas. At our school, the first three years of study are devoted to the completion of all requirements for graduation, while the last year is devoted to CUNY College Now coursework. Over the course of their high school experience, students become ‘resident experts’ in a topic of their choice and are required to compile a variety of reports, experiments, and artifacts culminating in a senior year presentation to their peers.
