Alexander Hamilton High School (Los Angeles) - Small Learning Communities

Small Learning Communities

Hamilton High is divided into six "small learning communities," or SLCs," which coordinate their own curricula and staff. They are:

  • Academy of Music
  • Humanities Magnet, established in 1981
  • CAA (Communication Arts Academy)
  • Global Studies
  • BIT (Business & Interactive Technology)
  • MSM (Math Science Medical)

During the 2008/2009 school year, the L & M (Leadership & Management) was eliminated and the students were placed in the four remaining non-magnet SLCs.
