Our Curriculum
Salisbury offers you a traditional secondary school curriculum that is designed to prepare you for the rigors of college. Rich departmental course offerings are carefully designed to teach you to write and read well, and to think independently as you hone the ability to apply the learning skills essential to achieving your full potential. Expectations in the classroom are high, and we expect you to prepare thoroughly for your lessons, participate in classroom discussions and to perform to the best of your abilities.
Honors level and Advanced Placement courses are available for those of you seeking a more challenging curriculum. Some required courses also offer sections at a more moderate pace.
