Greetings Parents and Students:

 

Principal HurstOn behalf of the faculty and staff, it is a pleasure to welcome you to the 2011-2012 school  opening of the B. E. S. T. Academy High School at Benjamin S. Carson. We are committed to providing a quality educational experience for every student that will successfully prepare them to compete, succeed, and lead within a global society.  Thus, our theme will be “Entering Determined and Exiting Prepared”.  Before  students graduate from B. E. S. T. Academy High School, they will stand out among others because of their ability to:

 

  • Make a relevant post-secondary decision based on interests, skills, and abilities
  • Prepare, present, and defend an idea
  • Complete an internship or job shadow experience
  • Conduct a professional job search and interview
  • Establish valuable relationships with leaders within the business community
  • Makes students aware of and prepared for college success

 

Offering such a quality educational experience requires strong support and interaction among all students, faculty, and parents. B. E. S. T. Academy High School wants to work closely with parents to offer the best for all students.  As we embark upon the new school year, please become familiar with the important dates and initiatives listed on the calendar which will impact your son’s academic success.   Your attendance and support of these efforts will ensure a successful beginning to the school year.

  • Parenting Tips for High School Students

    posted by: webmaster Type:

    1. Your high-school student should be thinking about her future.Will I go to college? Should I try to find a job? What should I do? Listen to her, support her, and have an open mind about the endless possibilities.

    2. If your high-school student has a job, then help him manage his money and time. Help him to create a budget, and have a savings plan.

    3. At this stage, most kids will be getting their driver’s license and many will be driving to school. Take time to help them learn by taking them driving. Be supportive, clear, and direct when discussing safety on the road.  When your high-school student gets her driver’s license, have clear rules as to when, how, and with whom she drives. Give her clear guidelines. “You will not be texting while driving,” and “Always buckle up when driving!” Make sure she knows that driving is a great responsibility and privilege.
