OUR VISION: To excel in providing focused students a challenging environment where they can earn a high school diploma and college credits.

The purpose of the Chain of Lakes Collegiate Charter High School, PSC Winter Haven, is to provide academic and technical education for serious high school juniors and seniors who desire to undertake college-level study.  The two-year curriculum will enable students to complete a high school diploma and many of the requirements for an associate degree, simultaneously, in either academic transfer or technical education certificate option.

Four essential educational principles provide the foundation on which the charter school is based:

• 1.   Students will develop the capacity to think critically, solve problems, and communicate effectively through a mastery of academic courses with rigorous academic emphasis;
• 2.   Students will learn about themselves, their heritage, and the interdependent world through academic courses;
• 3.   Students will prepare for further education and work force through elective, academic and technical courses;
• 4.   Students will learn to fulfill their civic obligations through school and community service.
