High School Academics
With both a high school and college on the same campus, we are able to provide an exemplary college preparatory program and dual enrollment to our high school cadets. Through dual enrollment we offer a program that makes it possible for our students to graduate from high school with a full year or more of college credit.
The advantage of a full board environment gives our teachers and instructors the ability to make developing good study habits a 24/7 task. Through a set of incentives and supervision, our cadets show marked improvement in their abilities to improve their academic standing. Cadets who perform well during the regular school week are rewarded with the opportunity to have additional free time and a shortened schedule on Fridays (Smart Friday), to receive recognition every three week grading period at an awards ceremony before the entire corps, to become a member of the Wentworth Honor Society and the National Honor Society, and receive numerous Wentworth awards at the end of year ceremonies. Each night there is a 2 hour mandatory, supervised study time for each cadet. Additional study time is assigned to those cadets not performing up to task, with college cadets, classmates,and faculty members in the barracks, help is always nearby . There is also a Saturday school for cadets who need even further instruction. Through these programs, we teach our students the valuable study habits that make our cadets college ready.
