In accomplishing this goal, we plan to provide vocational training in hospital and health care that meets the employment needs of the community. The Health and Medical Occupations Academy is an alternative to a traditional curriculum that encourages a partnership between the private sector and the educational community. It is our goal to strengthen student self-confidence and enhance leadership skills throughout the program. The Health and Medical Occupations Academy is a career-oriented program at Dana Hills High School. The applications will be screened, students will be interviewed, and those selected will receive written notification.
Applications are available in the guidance office.
Each application will be reviewed by a committee of credentialed staff who will determine if the qualifications of the student meet the standards of the Academy. Students will receive written notification of the outcome of their application prior to summer registration. Annual evaluations will be completed for each Health Academy student to determine continuance in the program. A 2.0 G.P.A. is required to continue in The Health and Medical Occupations Academy .
