Ypsilanti Community High School (YCHS) is a dynamic high school offering diverse programming to prepare students for college, career, and beyond.
ACTech (within YCHS)
At our ACTech (Art, Communication, and Technology) High School, students experience both personal and individualized instruction based on the Arts, Humanities, and Logistics. An interdisciplinary approach to learning will be emphasized, as students complete a rigorous program with variable instructional practices based on Michigan Merit Curriculum and Common Core State Standards. Credit will be granted and achievement will be communicated based on mastery of standards and skills. Instruction will take place in the classroom, in educational workshops, and through self-designed research and development. Students, staff, and community partnerships will create an enriching, challenging, and thought-provoking learning environment that will prepare and expose students to a collegiate experience.
STEMM Middle College (within YCHS)
STEMM Middle College at YCHS blends high school and college, allowing students to earn a high school diploma and 15-60 transferable college credits through real-world STEM experiences and mentorship, typically completed in five years.
*Only schools authorized by the IB Organization can offer any of its four academic programmes: the Primary Years Programme (PYP), the Middle Years Programme (MYP), the Diploma Programme (DP), or the Career-related Programme (CP). YCMS & YCHS are candidate schools for the MYP, DP, & CP Programmes. Candidate status gives no guarantee that authorization will be granted.
