Our strong college preparatory program in 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 have enabled our students to earn passing grades on AP exams at a rate far greater than the national averages.
