Students commit to a rigorous college preparatory curriculum with an emphasis on individual and experiential learning.
The Community School prepares you to be successful in college and career. Students learn in small, multi-level classrooms that encourage engagement and achievement for each student. The academic program is rigorous; each student is expected to earn above an 80% and only 70% and higher earns credits counted towards graduation.
Because students from multiple grade levels often learn together, the courses offered rotate each year. Your daily learning will include:
You will be exposed to a breadth of learning experiences beyond our main curriculum.
Activities have included:
We have a partnership with the University of Baltimore and the Community College of Baltimore County allowing our students to take college courses in their junior and senior years. The goal is to ease the transition to college and also to enter college with college credits already earned.
Juniors and seniors in good standing will take ACDV, a college introduction course. In addition, juniors and seniors with a G.P.A. of at least 2.5, and who are prepared for more challenging work, will have an opportunity to take additional courses for college credit.
Additionally, students have the opportunity to take CLEP tests for college credit.
