The academy will provide unique learning experiences, allowing students to better understand the role of mathematics and science in an increasingly global and technological society.  Students will be able to interact with the professional and university community to develop skills that will prepare them to be tomorrow’s math and science leaders, and academy graduates will have been exposed to a full range of careers in mathematics and science. Graduates of the Math and Science Academy will have earned multiple college credits through AP Exams, articulated Dual Credit courses, and opportunities for online college level courses.
