Vision Statement

We want Langston Hughes High School to be a school that scholars, families and staff are proud of for years to come. We aspire to take our place amongst the best high schools in the South Learning Community as well as the Atlanta, Georgia area. Our scholars will learn the transformative value of a quality education. Ultimately, we want higher academic outcomes for our scholars. We will continue to push the bar around college acceptance, scholar’s cumulative grade point average, student involvement, scholar’s taking college classes, community involvement, and work force readiness. We will achieve this by ensuring our scholars are globally competitive in reaching their post-secondary aspirations. We will implement effective systems to improve teaching and learning for all stakeholders. We will establish a strong teacher community where teachers collaborate and make Data Driven Instructional decisions. We will produce a school culture that is rooted in love, care, and academic excellence. When we implement these systems with fidelity we will see positive results for our scholars. The scholars in our zip code deserve excellent schools.

Early College High School genuinely engages a wide spectrum of students by offering a complete and rigorous curriculum, supported by technology and aligned to student interests and educational standards. Flexible and innovative coursework allow scholars to graduate from high school early or allow scholars to complete the general high school course in addition to an Associate's Degree. Scholars will earn a high school diploma and transferable general education college credits, enabling them to attend college and pursue a career path.

The Early College Program is structured to provide successful, challenging, and meaningful experiences for all students. LHHS is an academic program intended to enable students to pursue postsecondary education and a career path. Scholars are offered the opportunity to earn a high school diploma and meet university entrance requirements. Students also take college courses for which they receive college units through dual enrollment. (flyer)
