What we are:

The Zoo School, a Science Focus Program of Asheboro High School,  will provide an opportunity for rising 10^th, 11^th and 12^th grade students to experience high school another way.

 

Students will work on rigorous curriculum with real-life applications at the North Carolina Zoological Park.  This smaller learning community will provide a nurturing environment to enhance learning and support relationships among students and staff.

 

This program is designed to incorporate the proud tradition of Asheboro High School while offering flexibility for students looking for something beyond the conventional high school format.
