Our strong college preparatory program in the grades 9-12 is built on a proven sequence of course work. Students are taught theory, history, and practical application of each subject. The curriculum is carefully designed to stimulate and engage students, giving them the confidence to participate and the tools for self-direction, skills that they will draw upon for college and beyond.
Pacific Hills School prides itself on a strong advanced placement program, offering classes in mathematics, science, history, English, foreign languages and more. Small focused AP classes consistently ensure that our students receive a passing grade on AP exams at a far greater rate than national averages.
