Palm Bay
High School PIRATES Program
The Palm Bay High School Program for Independent Research, Advanced Technology,
Engineering, and Science (PIRATES) Academy is the final link in the Brevard
County Public School’s Science and Technology Choice Program feeder
chain, which includes the West Melbourne School for Science and the Stone
Middle School Science and Technology Program. The Academy’s goal
is to provide a coordinated, rich and rigorous curriculum to assist students
interested in careers in the fields of science, engineering, math and
technology.
Students will be required to complete four years of Science, Math and
Technology course work. Academy students in 9th and 10th grades
will be teamed in Math, English, Science and Social Studies classes with
a student-to-teacher ratio of 20:1. Academy students will also be required
to complete a Junior Year Internship and a Senior Year Capstone Project.
Enrollment in Palm Bay High School’s PIRATES Academy is based on
student and parent choice. Students from any of these central and south
areas may apply to attend the PIRATES Academy if they meet Academy requirements.
