Principal's Message

Dear students, parents, and school community,
 
Welcome to the 2025-2026 school year!
 
I am thrilled to welcome you to City Honors International Preparatory School (CHIPS), a vibrant learning community dedicated to nurturing and challenging our students to become responsible, self-disciplined, and critical thinkers.
 
We are committed to providing a rigorous academic environment that fosters a love of learning and prepares students for success in college and beyond.
 
At CHIPS, we believe that every student has the potential to achieve greatness. We offer a wide range of academic programs, including Cambridge, Advanced Placement (AP), and Dual Enrollment courses, to ensure that students are challenged and engaged in their learning.
 
However, CHIPS is more than just academics. We also provide a rich co-curricular program that includes athletics, wellness, clubs, and activities to help students develop their social, emotional, and leadership skills. We believe that a well-rounded education is crucial for equipping students with the skills and knowledge necessary to navigate the challenges and opportunities of the 21st century.
 
Here are just a few of the things that make CHIPS special:
-A rigorous academic program: We offer a wide range of courses, including Advanced Placement, Dual Enrollment, and Honors classes.
-Innovative CTE pathways: We are excited to introduce two new Career and Technical Education pathways this year
- Cybersecurity and AME (Arts, Music, and Movement) - providing students with cutting-edge opportunities to explore emerging fields and creative expression.
-A diverse and inclusive community: We welcome students from all backgrounds and cultures.
-A supportive and dedicated staff: Our teachers, counselors, and administrators are committed to helping our students succeed.
-State-of-the-art facilities: Our Wellness Space and Pilates Studio continue to provide students with opportunities for relaxation, mindfulness, and physical well-being.
-A strong sense of community: We are proud of our close-knit community and the strong relationships that our students, parents, and staff have with each other.
 
Our commitment to excellence is evident in our outstanding student achievements. Our graduates are consistently recognized for their academic success and are accepted into top colleges and universities around the world.
 
The true measure of our success is the impact we have on the lives of our students. We are proud of the confident, compassionate, and engaged individuals who graduate from CHIPS, ready to make a positive difference in the world.
 
I invite you to explore our website and learn more about the exciting opportunities that await you at CHIPS. We are confident that you will find a welcoming and supportive community where you can thrive and reach your full potential.
 
At CHIPS, our motto remains futurum reserans: unlocking the future. To that end, we are committed to unlocking a better future with and for our students.
 
As we enter this new academic year, we look forward to building on our successes and embracing new challenges together. Let's make 2025-2026 our best year yet!
