CHART YOUR COURSE AND SOAR

We empower students to have both a voice and choice to discover their passion, follow their own interests and pursue their own goals.

At Purdue Polytechnic High School, our students think outside the box by learning outside of the traditional classroom. Students participate in hands-on experiences with concepts and technologies that are needed to succeed in a technology-focused economy. Students work with numerous STEM-focused industry partners – such as Eli Lilly and Company, Citizens Energy Group and more – that serve as mentors and guides.

WE'RE STUDENT-CENTERED:

Students are at the center of everything we do. It takes everyone to build a nurturing environment, where students have space for growth and where it is safe to fail.

Students take learning into their own hands with the guidance of academic coaches who are tuned in to their students’ specific needs and facilitate learning.

Students are inspired, motivated and involved in every aspect of their learning at PPHS, including creating their weekly schedule.

We're STEM Focused:

Students at PPHS work toward either an Honors or CORE40 diploma. They can choose a college-bound track or earn in-demand industry credentials that make them more employable upon graduation.

Students work with numerous STEM-focused industry partners – such as Eli Lilly and Company, Citizens Energy Group and more – that serve as mentors and guides. Through these partnerships, students explore career opportunities in the local job market and consider career paths through job shadowing and internship opportunities.

Students are introduced to a worklike environment, where they collaborate with their peers toward mutual goals, are rewarded for creatively solving problems and learn that being self-motivated leads to the best results.

Successful PPHS graduates who meet the minimum admission requirements of Purdue University can earn direct admission into Purdue Polytechnic Institute, one of the 10 academic colleges of Purdue.
