Cambridge 

The Cambridge Program at Piper High School

At Piper High School, we’re proud to offer one of the largest Cambridge Advanced International Certificate of Education (AICE) Programs in Broward County. This world-renowned academic pathway challenges students to think critically, communicate effectively, and develop the skills they need to succeed in college and beyond.

Our students don’t just rise to the challenge — they excel. Piper’s Cambridge pass rates are among the best in Broward County, a reflection of our students’ hard work and the dedication of our teachers. Many of our graduates earn the prestigious Cambridge AICE Diploma, and together, they have earned nearly $7 million in Bright Futures scholarships thanks to their success in the program.

Our teachers are also leaders in the Cambridge community. Two of our very own have authored official Cambridge textbooks — one for AICE History and another for the new AICE Government course — helping shape how students learn around the world.

Through the Cambridge program, Piper students gain more than just college credits — they gain confidence, global awareness, and the skills to succeed wherever their future takes them.
