Curriculum

Immaculate High School’s academic program is exclusively College Preparatory. Our courses are designed for students who are preparing to continue their studies post our secondary education. They are taught with high expectations for depth and comprehension, including independent work. Honors courses are designed to be rigorous, challenging, fast-paced with an expectation of extensive work outside the classroom. IHS features 45 honors level courses in English, Social Studies, World Language, Mathematics, Science, Business, and Fine Arts. Immaculate offers an Advanced Placement Program that is administered by the College Board and consists of standardized high school courses that are equivalent to undergraduate college courses. They are designed to prepare the annual average of 140 enrolled students for the rigors of college level work, and they represent the school’s most challenging level of study. Immaculate offers seventeen AP courses in the traditional classroom setting, which include Biology (college level), Calculus AB, Chemistry, Computer Science A, English Language & Composition, English Literature & Composition, French Language & Culture, Government & Politics, Macroeconomics (college level), Physics Part 1 (ECE), Physics Part 2 (college level), Psychology, Spanish Language & Culture, Studio Art: Drawing, Studio Art: 2-D Design, U.S. Government & Politics, U.S. History (college level) and Graphic Arts (college level). Immaculate also collaborates with Virtual High School, allowing the school to offer another twenty-three virtual online AP and college-level courses potentially. All AP classes have prerequisites that must be met for students to participate in the class. *Fairfield University, Quinnipiac, University of Connecticut, and Western Connecticut University sponsor our college level courses.
