Coordinator's Welcome

Dear Parents and Guardians,
On behalf of New Britain High School, we are excited to introduce you to the New Britain High School Academies. This is a unique opportunity for your child to gain professional knowledge and real-world expertise before they even graduate.

Our high school is home to four distinguished academies, each designed to provide a deep dive into specific career pathways:
● Academy of Business and Finance
● Academy of Health Sciences
● Academy of Manufacturing, Engineering and Technology (MET)
● Academy of Public Service

What sets our program apart?
Our academic model integrates rigorous, college-preparatory coursework with project-based learning, ensuring students master both theoretical concepts and their practical applications. Throughout their four-year journey, students engage in a structured curriculum designed to build technical proficiency and critical thinking skills. This is further enhanced by collaborations with industry partners, offering students early exposure to college-level content and professional expectations. By blending demanding academics with hands-on, real-world experiences, our program empowers students to graduate not only with a diploma but with a clear, competitive pathway to post-secondary education and their chosen careers.

We invite you to learn more about how we can support your student’s future. Please visit https://nbhs.csdnb.org/new-britain-high-school-academies or contact us at (860) 827-2247 if you have any questions.
