A Note from the Superintendent
January 2026
Dear Students and Families,
Stamford Public Schools is excited to share the 2026-27 Program of Studies, which details the nearly 125 unique courses available to students attending AITE. The Program of Studies is a comprehensive planning guide where you can learn about graduation requirements, read course descriptions, and think about what courses and career paths pique your interest.
As a large and diverse learning community, Stamford Public Schools strives to offer programs that will prepare every student for postsecondary success. We are proud to be a state leader in the number of Advanced Placement and UCONN Early College Experience (ECE) courses offered in our high schools, as well as to offer the award-winning Project Lead the Way biomedical science, computer science, and engineering programs at AITE.
Creating a comprehensive Program of Studies takes many months, and I’d like to thank the teachers, content area specialists, and Teaching & Learning Department staff who contributed their time, talent, and ideas to the 2026-27 Program of Studies. Our teachers suggested many new courses for 2026-27, and here are the new courses that were accepted for the AITE Program of Studies:
- AITE Exploratory
- Medical Terminology & Skills
- Integrated Math II with Math Lab
- Digital Journalism and Design
Course selection begins in February, and the courses selected by students will be used to develop the 2026-27 AITE master schedule. Students should think carefully about the required courses and electives they want to request for next year. Elective courses will only run if we receive enough student requests during course selection in February. I hope you enjoy selecting your courses for next year and thinking about the exciting opportunities ahead.
Sincerely,
Dr. Tamu Lucero
