Described in five steps by a simple-to-understand bulletin board.
Liceo Scientifico Statale “Filippo Masci” is an ancient and prestigious high school established by a Royal Decree in 1923.
The educational activities of the school, which has a population of about 800 students, are carried out in a brand new earthquake-proof and sustainable building in the ex military area of Caserma Berardi of Chieti.
Liceo Masci curriculum, which combines classical tradition with scientific studies, is divided into 3 main areas: 1. Ordinary traditional course combining STEM subjects with Humanities such as Latin, 2. Applied Science course with Informatics and Robotics, 3. Cambridge International School, in cooperation with the University of Cambridge, offering a bilingual curriculum in Maths, Phisycs and Biology. <br />The school also offers a Biomedical path in cooperation with the University of Chieti and the Provincial Medical Board.
For this reason, our teachers are deeply aware of belonging to an important educational reality.<br />Eduscopio.it, the Agnelli Foundation's website, which aims at helping students choosing the university career, has awarded the Liceo “F. Masci” as the best secondary of Abruzzo since 2014: the measurement parameters are based on the result of the average grades of first-year university exams and the number of college credits earned.
The results of the INVALSI national tests are comparable to those of important high schools of northern Italy, belonging to a much richer socio-cultural background. Our Teachers Professional Development Plan, contained in our School Chart (PTOF), in compliance with the Reform Act 107/2015, is aimed at the training and professional development of our teachers, especially focusing on STE(A)M group teachers, in order to adopt a competence-based curriculum in an international perspective.
