The Freshman Academy is a support to help students transition to high school. After students successfully complete their freshman year in the academy, there are several pathways to finish their secondary education journey.

In the academy, our team meets daily to discuss students' interests, readiness for more rigorous curriculum, or any continued supports that should be considered to promote success. Presentations for the Tech Center and Fairlead Academy are among the options that we offer and discuss during the course of the year to help students have educational autonomy. If students aren't interested in Tech Center or need the continued support at Fairlead, we design their schedule for a full day here at CHS with their guidance counselor.
