Centaurus High School Administration
"Centaurus High School is an Engineering Focus School, and an International Baccalaureate Focus School that provides an environment rich in academia.
Centaurus will graduate the first class of International Baccalaureate Diploma Program candidates in 2008.
CHS also offers a wide range of Advanced Placement (AP) courses. Our AP and Honors programs,
Fine Arts and Practical Arts programs, Pre-Engineering programs, and exceptional
extracurricular programs ensure that each of our students are prepared for a competitive future."
"In addition to our tradition of outstanding academics and superior athletics and activities programs, Centaurus continues to prepare young people to be gainful and giving in their community,
locally and globally. Our vision is that upon graduation each student will be confident of his or her
abilities to compete and thrive in a pluralistic world, be well informed about and prepared for post-high school choices, and be compassionate about others’ human condition.
Our 226, 2006 graduates received over $1.5 million in scholarships; among these are student scholarships to Yale, John Hopkins, Harvey Mudd, the Naval Academy, Creighton, Embry-Riddle,
and a plethora of state universities and colleges."
"AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination), International Baccalaureate, and Pre-Engineering provide students the most rigorous courses in preparation for highly academic majors at the
University level. Both AVID and Pre- Engineering classes are enhanced by partnerships with local universities and community mentors. The Engineering Partnership with the University of Colorado provides students the opportunity for guaranteed admission to the CU School of Engineering.
The International Baccalaureate Diploma Program provides students with the academic preparation
to compete nationally and internationally."
"Our school’s enrollment is just over 1,000 students, ensuring a learning community that is
large enough to offer an array of courses and programs, yet small enough to provide
individual academic guidance and assistance. We begin our community building in 9th grade with our unique Freshman Seminar and LINKS mentoring program. To further personalization
at CHS,
this year we will implement an Advisory program for all sophomores."
