IHS-US is a small public high school exclusively for recently arrived immigrant English Language Learners who have lived in the U.S. for four years or less. Our students come from over 50 different countries and speak over 25 different native languages. We opened in September 2010 as a member of the nationally recognized INPS. Almost all of our students will be first-generation college students. Therefore, this trip will be incredibly impactful being the first time most of our students will have the opportunity to see and experience a college campus. Getting this type of exposure in their junior year will give them time to study for the SAT and help motivate them academically because they will better understand how their hard work will pay off! The majority of our students are low-income and have numerous responsibilities, including working after school and on weekends to support their families. They do not have the time or resources to fundraise money for a bus trip or visit colleges on their own time. Visiting a college within the school day will give them insight into the college experience while they can stay committed to their part-time jobs and familial responsibilities once the school day ends.
