Academics

Above all, The New Orleans Charter Science and Mathematics High School is focused on academics.  We believe it is our job to prepare our students to be academically competative in any field they choose to enter.

Along with a strong array of science and mathematics courses, SciHigh offers a core language arts, social studies and foreign language curriculum. 

Listed below are the courses offered at SciHigh. Click here for a copy of the 2007-2008 SciHigh Course Catalogue. We are not able to offer every class every semester and often add classes based on student and faculty interest.
