Vivien T. Thomas Medical Arts Academy

Description

The Vivien T. Thomas Medical Arts Academy hopes that after mastering a wide range of prerequisite skills, graduates will be ready to enter college or the work force in entry-level careers in science and health. In addition, we intend graduates to have built a knowledge base of ideas, experiences and application through both internships and externships that address their needs and interests. As a result, they will be adept in working both independently and collaboratively. History: Medical Arts Academy started on September 2004 as a breakout school of Southwestern High School #412. The new school was created in a restructuring effort to improve the performance of students previously in #412.Currently, as a new school, our school has the ninth, tenth and eleventh; next year, the twelfth will be added.
