Prospective Students
Are you up for the challenge?
We live in a fast-paced world that requires a society and workforce with strong science and technology backgrounds. The School seeks highly-competent and motivated Metro Nashville Public Schools (MNPS) high school students who are passionate about science and math, ready to apply themselves as today's problem solvers, and interested in becoming tomorrow's leaders. The School will prepare students to successfully engage in college studies at an accelerated rate, promote pursuit of graduate, postgraduate and professional study, and provide the strong foundation crucial for career success.
Beyond the fast-paced and exciting curriculum, a student at the School for Science and Math:
- will commit to the program for the entire four years including academic year and summer courses;
- will attend the School on Vanderbilt campus one full day per week in 9th and 10th grade;
- must make up all work missed at their zoned (regular) school;
- must maintain excellent standing in both the School and their zoned school.
