It is never to early to invest in our students.

The goal of every community school is to prepare its students to be successful in life after graduation. Our community schools partner with local colleges to prepare middle and high school students for college, and they provide students with engaging and meaningful education, training students to be active citizens.

Lifelong learning can enhance our understanding of the world around us, provide us with more and better opportunities and improve our quality of life. Professional and personal development can greatly improve your employment opportunities.

The Zone is a safe and structured place for 7th – 12th grade youth in Norfolk to come connect with adult mentors, get help with homework, and build friendships. Our recreational and enrichment activities support youth development and create opportunities to practice social skills and build character. Our ultimate goal at The Zone is to motivate youth to graduate from high school and to develop into healthy, productive adults.

The Zone

We are excited to provide our students with the opportunity to learn in a positive environment where they can explore career education in areas they have interest and passion. Norfolk Career Academies encourage small learning communities within Norfolk Senior High that provide a strong focus on career and college readiness in several career cluster areas. Elective courses are stategically sequenced to follow a program of study that includes theory exploration as well as hands-on, practical experiences needed to be successful in the student’s chosen career interest area.
