Indianapolis Metropolitan High School Classroom

Academics

Small Class Sizes

Indianapolis Metropolitan High School offers courses for students to earn the Core 40, Academic Honors or Technical Honors Diploma. All core courses, including Spanish and Pre-Calculus, are offered in-person with small class sizes and individualized attention.

Personalized College & Career Planning

Indianapolis Met has a 1:65 ratio of academic coach to student, so our students and families are able to frequently interact with the staff members responsible for scheduling. Academic coaches get to know students’ postsecondary goals and help students create individualized graduation plans to meet those goals.

All students are required to take a graduate capstone course prior to graduation. This course gives students opportunities to explore college and careers through guest speakers, budget analysis, self-reflection, and a capstone presentation. This course also provides time during the school day for students to complete college and job applications, apply for financial aid and scholarships and build their resumes.

Free Dual Credits and Certifications

Our dual credit classes are offered through Ivy Tech. These courses allow our students to feel challenged, make them more competitive for college admissions and give them a head start on credits. As part of the Goodwill Education Initiatives network, Indy Met students can also take distance learning dual credit courses through multiple Excel Center schools across the state.

Students can also participate in dual enrollment opportunities through IU Indy and Ivy Tech. These courses and programs allow our students to take classes on college campuses while still in high school.

We are located near the west side of downtown in the heart of healthcare, manufacturing and tech jobs. To match the most in-demand jobs in our community, we offer a variety of certifications in healthcare, information technology, business, logistics and advanced manufacturing.

All of our certification students are invited to enroll in TalentSource, which is Goodwill’s very own job placement service. TalentSource helps place students in a full-time job after high school and offers career coaching during the graduate’s first year on the job.

Additional Support in Reading, Writing & Math

All students take the Reading and Quantile Inventory upon enrollment at Indianapolis Met to identify their current reading and mathematics level. Qualifying students receive extra support in Language Lab and Pre-Algebra classes to support them in gaining skills needed to access high school-level materials.

Indianapolis Met also offers an enrichment course that focuses specifically on preparation for the College Board PSAT and SAT tests. Students are placed in this course based on qualifying scores. Students can also opt into the course by choosing it when requesting their electives.

Special Education

Students who qualify for special education services create Individual Education Plans along with their family, teachers and support staff to help each student reach his or her full potential. We integrate special education students in the general curriculum whenever possible and support them in meeting the same curriculum and assessment expectations as their peers.

English Language Learners

Students who qualify for English Learner services create Individual Learning Plans along with their family, teachers and support staff to help each student reach proficiency in the English language.
