Academics
Academics are at the heart of everything we do at Goshen High School. We firmly believe that every child, given time and support, can and will learn.
We are a diverse school, and our students have diverse needs. In the past five years, Goshen High School has had more National Merit Scholars and more ENL (English as a New Language) students than any other high school in Elkhart County.
To meet the needs of all of our students, Goshen High School provides a variety of special programs and opportunities, including:
-
Student Resource Time: Provides each student with a four-year relationship with one teacher who helps monitor individual progress and needs.
-
Resource Rooms: Provides qualified teachers and tutors to give extra help, when needed, to each student in four 45-minute sessions each week.
-
Alternative Schools: Merit Learning Center and Opportunity Knocks provide alternative school settings for students who may not be successful in traditional high school classrooms.
-
School to Work Program: Provides career training through Mentorships, Internships, and access to Elkhart Area Career Center.
-
Honors Program: Provides opportunities for college credit, Advanced Placement Exam preparation, and outstanding college preparatory coursework.
-
English as a New Language: Provides English language learners standards-based instruction in many content areas until they can be successful in the general education classroom.
-
Special Education: Provides the appropriate opportunities and accommodations as recommended in students’ Individual Education Plans.
- Freshman Academy: Provides extra support for 150 incoming freshmen.
District programs include Gifted & Talented, ENL and more.
