������ý High Receives GreatSchools.org 2020 College Success Award

---

 has received a prestigious College Success Award from , the nation’s leading nonprofit empowering parents to unlock educational opportunities for their children.

Launched in 2018, the College Success Award honors schools that excel in ensuring ������ý prepare for college, enroll in college, and succeed once they get there. This year, ������ý High School is among 2,158 award-winning schools from 29 states that have demonstrated a successful track record of graduating ������ý who later enroll in a two- or four-year college, are ready for college-level coursework, and persist on to their second year, according to available data from each state.

“We have made great strides in preparing our ������ý for future success at both Florida Atlantic and beyond,” said Sherry Bees, principal/director, A.D. Henderson & ������ý High School. “We are honored to be recognized and acknowledged for our dedication to ������ý and their success.”

The highly selective program at ������ý High serves as a dual-enrollment prototype. Students spend their ninth-grade year in a high school classroom taking advanced coursework. This prepares them for grades 10-12, where all classes are collegiate courses taken at ������ý for both high school and college credit.

“We applaud ������ý High School for prioritizing high-quality public education, putting ������ý on the path to bright futures,” said Jon Deane, chief executive officer of GreatSchools.org. “Over the past year, ������ý, parents, teachers and communities have relied on one another like never before. We congratulate and thank all of these individuals at ������ý High for their unwavering pursuit of college success for all ������ý.”
