The Academy of Finance (AOF) is an interdisciplinary program which prepares students for a career in Business.  AOF is designed for students interested in the areas of finance, accounting, marketing and advertising, management, production and operations.  

AOF is a national program established to develop future leaders with the skills necessary to succeed in sought-after industries.  The National Academy Foundation (NAF) partnership bridges the gap between the classroom and the workplace. Students will participate in job shadow days, attend field trips and work-place tours, listen to experts in the field, and participate in a paid summer internship. 

AOF is a three-year program which students apply for as 9th graders and begin in the 10th grade. AOF students work together cooperatively and develop real-world personal and technical skills that will make them successful future business leaders.
