Institute for Allied Health Sciences

This four-year program at the Institute for Allied Health Sciences will provide college preparatory students with an innovative, diverse, and comprehensive curriculum that fosters academic growth and enables students to reach their goals to become part of the health sciences professional community. Students will participate in field studies and experiences uniquely designed to understand the concepts and skills associated with this field and develop a broader awareness of health-related careers.

Students in this program are required to enroll in College Preparatory courses. In addition to the traditional courses, students will explore topics ranging from medical terminology, medical instruments, and anatomy to the history of medicine and technology in medicine in the Foundation of Health Sciences courses. Students will be expected to keep an electronic portfolio of their experiences and reflections throughout their high school career as they progress in this program. The capstone of this program will be the presentation of the students’ portfolios to the Magnet School Board.
