At AMS II we offer an integrated, challenge-based curriculum, which includes local and global community-based projects. We seek to cultivate global citizens who have the tools necessary to compete within our global society. We believe that such “hands-on-minds-on” learning experiences are critical to student engagement and essential to the process of preparing students to become college and career ready. We are also committed to the personal, social and emotional well-being of our students and seek to provide a caring and supportive learning environment that facilitates student growth. It is our goal to provide the necessary skills to all of our students so that they are successful learners, responsible citizens and productive members of our global community. We are a Title 1 school.
At AMS II, we offer a wide variety of extracurricular activites where students can express their passions and build leadership skills in the process. The core component is our students are able to build friendships with their peers through similar interest. From athletics, academics to social emotional support every student can find a place to shine. These opportunites also help strengthen students college and career readiness, teamwork as well as build on their high school resume when they begin their college applications. These are all skills that will last a lifetime.
It’s my senior year at AMS II, and everything I’ve learned here makes me feel ready for college.
At our high school, collaboration between teachers, students, and families is at the heart of everything we do. We believe that strong partnerships create a supportive and engaging learning environment where every student can thrive. Through open communication, shared goals, and mutual respect, we work together to foster academic success, personal growth, and a vibrant school community. Whether it’s through parent-teacher conferences, student-led initiatives, or family engagement events, we are united in our commitment to helping every learner reach their full potential.
Our high school is more than just a place to learn. It’s a strong, connected community where students, staff, and families come together to support one another. We celebrate diversity, encourage collaboration, and foster a culture of respect and inclusion. From academics and athletics to the arts and service projects, every student has the opportunity to find their place, grow their passions, and make meaningful contributions. Together, we create a safe, welcoming environment where every voice matters and every individual is valued.
