Smithfield High School Academy of Finance

A "Small Learning Community"

Smithfield's Academy of Finance is a member of the National Academy Foundation Network. Upon acceptance in 9th or 10th grade, students enroll in a focused curriculum of business and finance courses enriched by field trips, guest speakers, a paid internship, and personal relationships with the director and faculty members. We foster a family environment and we also promote networking and post-secondary involvement as a key benefit of membership. The Academy is supported by an Advisory Board comprised of local Business, Community Leaders, and Alumni. We emphasize Applied Learning, Community Service, Business Ethics, 21st Century Skills, Technology Use, and Student Leadership. Our newly formed National Business Honor Society Chapter recognizes a student's commitment to a career in Business and Finance and our FBLA Chapter is an avenue for students to network, organize events, and compete in annual statewide and national skills competitions. 100% of our graduates have enrolled in post-secondary institutions.
