Art Benjamin HPHS
is an incredible school – offering a rigorous career and college
preparatory education using healthcare as a theme. This is the
school to attend if you want to investigate medicine or healthcare –
or if you already know you want to be a doctor, nurse or vet.
The HPHS is open
to all students. Essentially the school provides a very high
quality education to students of all interests. Health systems and
hospitals have thousands of position descriptions for future careers
– we will work to place our students in job shadows, then
internships that are of high interest to individual students.
Students learn in
an extremely supportive environment that blends positive
relationships with adults, a solid academic foundation and community
centered learning.
Students develop
a passion for service and cultural understanding. A commitment to
service is essential for success in today’s careers. The program
has service learning components imbedded as major milestones in the
curriculum.
