The years that comprise a student’s academic experience in secondary school, the middle school through high school years, are a unique period in one’s lifetime. This is a time of change, from childhood to young adulthood, and with this change comes challenges, opportunities, and a broad-range of new experiences. During these years, an important aspect of human development that impacts a person’s future is his/her education. To this end, American High School offers a multitude of academic options and programs for our students. It is important to carefully consider these options and to become familiar with the requirements for successful progression from middle school to high school and postsecondary education.
School administrators, teachers, and counselors are key individuals in helping to guide students in making smart choices to optimize each student’s academic experience. It is my hope that each student take advantage of the information available on our website and of the assistance provided at American High School to plan an academic path that leads to success during the secondary school years and, ultimately, as a productive member of society..

In grade 6, instructional time should focus on four critical areas: (1) connecting ratio and rate to whole number multiplication and division and using concepts of ratio and rate to solve problems; (2) completing understanding of division of fractions and extending the notion of number to the system of rational numbers, which includes negative numbers; (3) writing, interpreting, and using expressions and equations; and (4) developing an understanding of statistical thinking.
In this course, you will expand your understanding of history by studying the people and events that ushered in the dawn of the major Western and non-Western ancient civilizations. Geography is of special importance in the development of the human story. Emphasis will be placed on learning about the everyday lives, problems, and accomplishments of people, their role in developing social, economic, and political structures, as well as in establishing and spreading ideas that helped transform the world forever.
You will analyze the interactions among the various cultures, emphasizing their enduring contributions and the link between today’s and ancient worlds. You will demonstrate your learning by completing activities, practices, applications, and unit projects. You will need to conduct outside research to complete some of these assignments.
Students in grade six continue to deepen their knowledge of the life, earth, and physical sciences through more complex investigations and explanations. The concepts they study become increasingly abstract in a developmentally appropriate manner to allow for the slow, incremental development of these cognitively complex ideas.
Seventh graders also continue to develop their investigative skills by generating their own questions, recognizing and explaining the relationships among variables, and critiquing the conclusions that are drawn from scientific investigations.
The HOPE scholarship allows parents to transfer their child to other K-12 public school programs with available capacity within the school district, receive a scholarship to transport the student to that general program in another community, or request a scholarship to attend an eligible student private program.
The McKay Scholarship Program for Students with Disabilities allows special-needs students to attend participating private programs during the 2022-23 school year. The parents have the option choice for an eligible special needs student to transfer to another public program within the scholarship guidelines.
The Florida Tax Credit Scholarship assures that low-income children have more learning options. The scholarships are based on financial need, and families may choose between financial assistance toward private programs and fees or transportation costs to attend public programs in another district.
AHS is one of only a handful of schools to be fully accredited by leading regional and national accreditation authorities.
