High School America: your starting point for an amazing academic and athletic career

Slamstox introduces sports and study at a High School in America! A great opportunity to combine your academics and sports, while preparing for college. Are you between 14 and 19 years old, a passionate athlete, and excited to use this as preparation for your college journey? We are ready to help you!

What does it entail?

The American high school system offers flexibility and athletic opportunities. Just like in the Netherlands, you have four academic years: freshman, sophomore, junior, and senior. During these four years, you can choose subjects you enjoy and participate in your own sport. Whether you excel in soccer, basketball, swimming, or athletics, high school provides you with the opportunity to develop in your favourite sport and studies. How cool is that!

The possibilities

There are various reasons and opportunities for attending high school in America.

  • Obtaining your American High School diploma. This prepares you well and can potentially lead to college enrollment.
  • You can pursue a Post Grad year, in which you repeat your final year of high school to further develop and potentially prepare for college.
  • Lastly, you can choose a Gap year, during which you fully focus on your sport for a year.
