Concord-Carlisle Regional High Schoolis a public high school located in Concord, Massachusetts, USA, northwest of Boston. The school serves grades 9–12, and as part of the Concord-Carlisle Regional School District, has students from both Concord and Carlisle, Massachusetts. The school also has a notable portion of minority students from Boston (particularly Dorchester, Roxbury, and Mattapan) enrolled as part of the METCO program. Concord-Carlisle Regional High School is widely regarded as one of the top public high schools in the state, with the September 2009 issue of ''Boston'' Magazine rating CCHS the number one public high school in cost efficiency and third in academic performance in eastern Massachusetts.〔Jason Schwartz, "(The Best Public High Schools )," ''Boston'' Magazine, September 2008. Last accessed 4-13-2009.〕 ==Academics== Class subjects include the normal core subjects of English, Math, Science, and Social Studies, but a number of elective studies are offered as well, including programming, music, and photography. In Social Studies or English, a broad course selection is offered. While CCHS by choice offers no AP classes in the humanities to allow for a more flexible curriculum, students may choose to take the AP tests. The English department offers classes on topics such as rhetoric and debate, American literature, British literature, contemporary literature, world literature, and black literature. The Social Studies department curriculum includes, among others, classes on Ancient Greece, Ancient Rome, and 20th century United States history, as well as psychology, economics, sociology, world religions, and Russian History. Foreign languages offerings are not merely French and Spanish, but Latin and Chinese as well. Introductory Swahili is included within the syllabus of "History of Africa." Educational experiences and trips to other countries include one to Edinburgh, Scotland in 2008, two to Prague in the Czech Republic, Salzburg and Vienna in Austria in 2001 and 2005, one trip which explored the entire length of Italy from north to south in 2003, and one trip to Spain in 2004, staying in Madrid, Sorrento, and Malaga. In 2008, 2009, 2012, and 2014 there were trips to Quito, Ecuador. In 2003, 2007, 2009 and 2010 there were trips to Hokkaido Japan for the Concert Band and the Sci Fi club. There have been trips to China, East Timor, and Estonia. A staple of recognition, the school's campus has a one-of-a-kind attribute – a giant high purple crayon covering an exhaust pipe in the middle of the courtyard. Recently, an addition of double-rainbow sculpture has been added in the memorial of Richard Koch. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Concord-Carlisle High School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
