THE YEARS THAT COMPRISE A STUDENT’S ACADEMIC EXPERIENCE IN SECONDARY SCHOOL, THE MIDDLE SCHOOL THROUGH HIGH SCHOOL YEARS, ARE UNIQUE PERIODS IN ONE’S LIFETIME. MIDDLE SCHOOL IS THE CRITICAL TIME OF CHANGE: FROM CHILDHOOD TO YOUNG ADULTHOOD, CHALLENGES, OPPORTUNITIES, AND A BROAD RANGE OF NEW EXPERIENCES.
During these years, an essential aspect of human development that impacts a person’s future is education. To this end, iTTi American High School offers a multitude of academic options and programs for our students. It is essential to consider these options carefully and become familiar with the requirements for successful progression from middle school to high school and postsecondary education.
