The Integrated Career Academic Networks (iCAN) magnet program at South Broward High School is an innovative educational initiative designed to engage every student in a personalized learning journey. Through enrollment in specialized academies, students engage in project-based and blended learning, develop essential workplace and technology skills, and receive mentorship from a diverse network of industry professionals and postsecondary advisors.

Any student interested in pursuing an immersive, career-focused high school experience is encouraged to apply. We welcome applicants who are eager to dive deep into their chosen field of study and are committed to developing both academically and professionally.

South Broward offers academies in Education, Business, Computer Science & Engineering, Health Sciences, and Arts & Entertainment. Each academy is designed to provide specialized knowledge and skills through a curriculum that blends academic rigor with practical, real-world applications.

We understand that interests can evolve, and we offer guidance and support for students who wish to transition between academies. The process and feasibility of switching depend on the timing and availability of the desired program.

There are many opportunities for parents and community members to contribute to the iCAN program, including mentorship, guest speaking, hosting site visits, or offering internships. We highly value community involvement and welcome any support that enriches our students' learning experiences.

Students participate in internships, fieldwork, and project collaborations with businesses and postsecondary institutions. These experiences provide valuable insights into professional environments and enhance students' resumes and college applications.

iCAN students have access to a wide range of support services, including academic counseling, college and career planning, and personalized mentoring from industry professionals. Our goal is to ensure that every student receives the guidance and resources they need to succeed.

Applicants are required to submit an application form, which may include academic records, personal statements, and recommendations. Specific requirements and deadlines can be found on our website or by contacting our Magnet Programs Coordinator, Ms. Acher.

Through a combination of rigorous academic coursework, hands-on project-based learning, and real-world professional experiences, iCAN students are exceptionally well-prepared for both higher education and immediate entry into the workforce. Our curriculum is designed to develop critical thinking, technical skills, and workplace competencies that are highly valued in today's job market.
