Mathematics, Science, Medicine

is a four-year college preparatory program focusing on motivating students in pursuing careers in mathematics, the sciences, and the medical and health professions. MSM, established in 1999, encourages and supports the whole student: academic development, career development, and personal/social development.

 

The program introduces students to a variety of careers, ensuring students meet A-G high school graduation requirements while preparing them to be academically competitive and college and career ready. Our 10th, 11th, and 12th grade students are offered Advanced Placement classes in a variety of subjects. MSM students actively participate in their instructional classes and visit university and private research laboratories, hospitals, and other medical/health service agencies.

 

All students in MSM are advised to enroll in and successfully complete math and science classes.  MSM students are exposed to a variety of careers in the medical field, with opportunities to volunteer in local hospitals and participate in summer internships.  MSM also has a vibrant and active leadership group that collects and donates over 1000 pounds of food every year to the local food bank, SOVA.  Students also raise funds to sponsor medical operations for children with cleft lips and palates through the non-profit group Smile Train.

The program prepares students to become academically competitive in entering a four-year college/university, community college, or technical/trade school that focuses on their chosen area of study.
