About
HAIS is both an early college and an international studies school. In addition to offering courses in Model United Nations, Global Business, International Business; HAIS also “internationalizes” the high school curriculum through projects, portfolios and learning expeditions to the nearby museum district. Once students have met the entrance standard on the Compass (http://www.act.org/compass/sample/index.html) HAIS will enroll them in dual credit college courses at the Houston Community College Central Campus. HAIS students shuttle to and from HAIS and the nearby HCC Central. HAIS students are “imbedded” in actual college classes and are held to the same standard and expectations as college students. It is our goal to graduate incoming freshmen in 4 to 5 years with not only a high school diploma but also with up to 60 hours of college credit. “Early college high (http://www.earlycolleges.org) school is a bold approach, based on the principle that academic rigor, combined with the opportunity to save time and money, is a powerful motivator for students to work hard and meet serious intellectual challenges. Early college high schools blend high school and college in a rigorous yet supportive program, compressing the time it takes to complete a high school diploma and the first two years of college.” |
