We focus on gifted education at Atkins. A number of our teachers are licensed in gifted education. Atkins curre ntly offers French, Latin, and Spanish. For students considering careers in the fields of science, engineering, biotechnology, medicine, or law, Latin is an excellent choice. Also, statistics show a significant increase in SAT scores for students who have studied Latin.
Students may choose from a variety of school organizations if they wish to become involved in after-school activities. This includes a large number of academic competition teams. Other activities such as participation in the Caravan News , the Atkins on-line newspaper, keep students engaged and informed.
We encourage all of our students to become active in after-school activities. Students may earn varsity letters from participating in varsity sports or academic competitions.
Our students are very active and win numerous awards. In the past, most magnet students attending Atkins take advantage of the school district's magnet shuttle bus service , however due to COVID guidelines for bus transporation, we are waiting for information from the district in regards to magnet shuttles. Students and parents are expected to sign the magnet contract to attend Atkins. Students should be aware of the board policy regarding magnet student expectations as well.
Atkins is located a mere six minutes from the new location of the Career Center. This means that a student can leave Atkins, drive to the Career Center, and be in class in approximately ten minutes, making it easier to mesh schedules between the two schools. Atkins was the first high school to adopt a Standard Mode of Dress. We believe this helps us place emphasis on a top tier education for all students.
