ADMISSIONS

 At Burns Sci Tech High School, we are committed to providing a student-centered, innovative learning environment through our ARCH Program (Applied, Relevant, Collaborative & Hands-on). All BST High students select one of three ARCHways—Entrepreneur, Innovator, or Scholar—which are tailored to their unique goals and aspirations.

• Entrepreneur: Designed for students pursuing career paths or vocational training that may not require a four-year degree, this pathway equips students with entrepreneurial skills and supports them in obtaining the credentials needed to succeed in their chosen fields.

• Scholar: A more rigorous academic program, the Scholar pathway develops critical thinking, research, collaboration, time management, and presentation skills necessary for success at the university level. Entry into this pathway requires an application and interview, ensuring students are ready for the challenge.

• Innovator: Blending elements of both Scholar and Entrepreneur, the Innovator pathway allows students to earn their high school diploma while simultaneously pursuing an Associate of Arts (AA) degree. This flexible pathway also includes Advanced Placement courses, offering a robust academic experience that prepares students for future academic and career endeavors.
