High School

As the eldest group of the school, TKG Academy High School students get to implement leadership qualities being developed for the past decade, both academically and spiritually. They are encouraged to fine-tune their strengths and interests, in order to cement their career options and develop skills for the line of work they will enter.

Academics

Taking responsibility for their academics, students prepare to transition to higher education. The teacher acts as a learning coach to facilitate their success, and strengthen understanding. Enrichment classes provide the needed social and off-screen balance.

TKG Academy’s Dual Credit program, in partnership with DCCCD Colleges, offers qualified high school students an opportunity to earn college credit while completing high school requirements. These provide an optimal transition for students coming from a small private school environment to college-level coursework.
