HSC is the small school for students who want to do big things. Our students look at themselves, their community, and their world and dig deep to determine how they can make it better. Through a rigorous curriculum and school culture focused on leadership, social justice, and public service, our students create the change they wish to see in the world.

 

By accessing HSC’s unique and progressive educational methodology, students both from New Haven and throughout the state choose HSC to create a positive view of their personal future. We offer a myriad of diverse opportunities for an innovative education, ranging from personalized learning to College Before College. Our two benchmark assessments in 10th and 12th grades, the Social Justice Symposium and Project HSC, demand students put learning into action. In partnering with community resources and organizations both in and out of the classroom, HSC is the choice for students looking to make a change in the world while gaining experience in it.
