About this school
Public choice option that is not guaranteed by address and generally depends on district choice or broader application rules.
Flushing International High School is a small, student-centered school dedicated to serving recent immigrants who are new to the United States and developing their English language skills. The school operates with a team-based structure, where teachers collaborate closely with students on interdisciplinary projects that integrate content learning with language development. Instruction supports both native language and English acquisition across all subject areas. Instead of relying on standardized exams, students graduate by completing rigorous portfolio-based performance tasks that demonstrate their learning and growth. FIHS is part of the Career Readiness and Modern Youth Apprenticeship (CRMYA) initiative, which promotes real-world learning experiences and prepares students for college and career success. Starting in 10th grade, students have access to early college courses, and all 11th-grade students participate in internships aligned with their interests and career goals. The school offers a wide range of arts programming, including Visual Arts, Dance, Photography, Drama, and Architecture & Design, providing students with multiple opportunities for creative expression and exploration.
