Amesbury Innovation High School

Amesbury Innovation High School (AIHS), located at 71 Friend Street in Amesbury, Massachusetts, serves as an alternative educational pathway within the Amesbury Public Schools district. The school is specifically designed to support students who thrive in a non-traditional learning environment, offering a personalized approach that differs from the conventional comprehensive high school experience. By maintaining a smaller, more intimate setting, AIHS focuses on building strong relationships between students and faculty, allowing for tailored instruction that meets the diverse academic and social-emotional needs of its student body.

The curriculum at AIHS emphasizes flexibility, competency-based learning, and real-world application, aiming to re-engage students who may have struggled in larger settings. The school places a high value on fostering a supportive community culture where students are encouraged to take ownership of their education, develop self-advocacy skills, and prepare for post-secondary success—whether that involves college, vocational training, or direct entry into the workforce. Through its mission to provide inclusive and innovative instruction, Amesbury Innovation High School ensures that all students have access to the resources necessary to graduate and become productive, confident members of the community.
