Huntingdon Area High School was dedicated January 15,1961, and completed a major renovation in 2006.  The High School offers its approximately 800 students in grades 9-12 educational programs which prepare them to continue their education or enter the job market following graduation. 

An accelerated academic program is also available to college bound students.  Learning and emotional support staff work with the classroom teachers to promote the achievement of all students.  Musical, artistic, guidance, and athletic departments serve to enhance and enrich the school's academic programs.  Our students also participate in the vocational courses offered at the Huntingdon County Career and Technology Center.  

The administration, faculty, and staff of HAHS strive to fulfill the tenets of President George W. Bush's federal program, NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND.  Ongoing efforts in curriculum review, staff development, technology, and school security demonstrate our commitment to the success of each student.

Next year the High School enters a new era of 21st century learning classrooms.   The Classrooms for the Future grant will compliment our efforts of becoming a 21st century learning institution.   New WEB 2.0 tools, a new wireless infrastructure, and a new professional learning communities approach to education will greatly change how High school classes are being taught.   We look forward to this new teaching style and the challenges ahead, as we prepare our students to become life long learners in this new world of global economics.
