I was pleasantly surprised at how well my science background at Sitka High prepared me for entry-level chemistry and laboratory science, even compared to my peers from bigger, fancier high schools in Anchorage and the lower 48. Sitka High can give you a strong science background, which is awesome considering we live in a small rural town.

“Sitka High's science program gave me a great foundation on which to start an undergraduate science degree. I can guarantee that I would not have experienced the same levels of success in my first years of university level science courses, had I not been provided with such a solid knowledge base from Sitka High.”
