The Academy was founded in the fall of 1998 and has a current enrollment of over 200 students, freshmen through seniors, who have made a commitment to a challenging curriculum in the areas of allied health, professional, and biotechnology professions. Our goal as educators is to provide them with valuable experiences, appropriate curriculum, and real-world applications that will help them become successful members of society.
Your student will receive an outstanding education at any of our four high schools in Carrollton-Farmers Branch ISD. Your student may be eligible and interested in applying to one of our specific academies or high school programs in our district. Students apply to these programs during their 8th-grade year and are selected according to the criteria of grades, attendance records, state assessments, essays and teacher recommendations. Students in all programs have the opportunity to participate in field trips and to be involved in outreaches and internships in the community; and those who complete the EMT practicum and pass the certification exam will receive college credit at Brookhaven Community College.
We look forward to visiting CFB middle schools during our fall visit.
