Academics

At North Quincy High School, we are committed to providing the highest quality education for all our students. Many of our students will continue their education after high school - so we provide rigorous, comprehensive courses to prepare them to succeed. Some students will choose careers or the military after graduation - so we provide the education, career guidance, and work-based learning to start them on track to succeed in the work force.

In addition to the course offerings listed below we offer a number of Academic Support Programs and Extended Day Opportunities.

THE 2008-09 COURSE SELECTION process for North Quincy High School students in grades 9, 10, and 11 will begin on Wednesday March 12, 2008.  Students will be given the course selection materials to take home to be reviewed and signed by their parent/guardian.  The signed course selection sheet must be returned to school for teacher approval and must be submitted to their homeroom teacher on Friday March 14, 2008. The 2008-09 Course Description booklet and course selection sheets are available on the “Guidance” page of the North Quincy High school website.
