ABOUT US

PALM SPRINGS HIGH SCHOOL

ESTABLISHED IN 1938

Mission Statement

"Palm Springs High School is committed to preparing all students to be productive, responsible individuals, and lifelong learners, by providing for their intellectual, personal and career development."

LEARNING IS PERSONAL

Learning is personal. That's why each day, we work to know each student by name, strength, interest and need and create a learning experience just for them. When students are known and feel like they belong, there are no limits to learning. Everything is possible. Learning is passion.

Students, in pursuit of academic excellence, have the opportunity to participate in an extended assortment of activities designed to encourage the development of minds, the search for personal discovery, and growth through creative expression.

Having our students consistently achieve at the highest levels of honor on annual examinations has been a product of our instructional program. Yearly, we are home to numerous National Merit Scholars.

OBJECTIVES

The staff is familiar with the merits of advanced planning, we believe that high school is the beginning of a career.

In addition to selecting from electives such as classes designed to introduce students to particular fields, students enjoy the unique opportunity to reach out into the community through a variety of job-shadowing programs which link the school with the diverse professional re-sources available in this unique location. This program allows students to supplement their classroom learning with practical experience and onsite training in all fields ranging from hotel management to the Arts to medicine.

Our students flourish because they are open to the joys of discovery and are ready to grasp the range of opportunities offered
