About the School of Business

The mission of the School of Business is simple, to do what we do best, Business.

The school’s business centers on the fostering of the character, intellect, and decision-making abilities of each student participant. We “Take Care of Business” by focusing our entire program on the lives of our students, their academic growth, and their place in the business world. Our entire program will be based on business—an understanding of business cycles, norms, environment, and practices. We intend to carefully monitor and encourage every student to realize the best of his or her potential within our small learning community.

Built on six years of success in the San Diego High School Academy of Finance, the School of Business has expanded and improved a successful small learning community. We believe that an understanding of the business world, and a student’s ability to seamlessly transition into it, represents a recipe for success that will serve School of Business graduates well, whether they proceed directly to the business world or toward a deeper course of study in post-secondary education.

School of Business Vision Statement:

The vision of the School of Business is simple, to do what we do best - business. The school’s business centers on the fostering of the character, intellect, and decision-making abilities of each student participant. Since the fall of 2004, we have been “Taking Care of Business” by focusing our entire program on the lives of our students, their academic growth, and their place in the business world. Our program is based on business -- an understanding of business cycles, norms, environment and practices. The School of Business staff carefully monitors and encourages every student to realize the best of his or her potential within our small learning community. Built on six years of success in the San Diego High School Academy of Finance, the School of Business has expanded and improved the model for building a small learning community by connecting to an accessible but challenging program of instruction delivered by a faculty and staff that is consistent, fair and tenacious. Consistent observations of the school’s learning environments, fair and balanced assessments based on identified needs and standards, and a tenacious promotion of the school’s “Habits of Mind” help drive the school.  Students are encouraged to Take Care of Business, Take Ownership, and Take Charge, a three part mantra which is understood by all stake holders on campus.
