Program Description

The Academy Mathematics, Science & Technology Academy is one of 5 magnet schools in Cobb County. Established in 2000, the Academy is infused into the 319,000 square foot Kennesaw Mountain High School campus. Students enter the Academy as freshmen through a competitive application process and progress through the coursework at an accelerated rate so that they can participate in courses beyond those found in traditional high schools. The capstone for seniors is a field experience/internship with a local institution of higher learning, professional group, or business.

Students take core courses in math and science during the freshman and sophomore years then concentrate on a particular field of interest during the junior and senior years.

Students generally take advantage of the many fine courses we have here and thus exceed the minimum requirement. See Math Sequencing - Class of 2011 and Before, Math Sequencing - Class of 2012 and After, Science Curriculum, and 4-Year Plan of Study for additional information.
