High Schools in the .
High schools in the United States offer college preparatory programs and vocational programs. College preparatory programs give students the necessary background for admission to a college or university. Vocational programs prepare students for jobs immediately following high school.
All high schools offer required courses — that is, classes in such subjects as English, science, and social studies. High school students also may choose from a wide variety of elective courses, such as music, foreign languages, or industrial arts. Extracurricular high school activities, which occur outside of classroom time, include sports, clubs, and plays.
Universities and colleges are schools that continue a person’s education beyond high school. A university or college education helps men and women enjoy richer, more meaningful lives. It prepares many people for professional careers as doctors, engineers, lawyers, or teachers. It also gives a person a better appreciation of such fields as art, literature, history, human relations, and science. In doing so, a university or college education enables individuals to participate with greater understanding munity affairs.

Universities differ from colleges in that they are larger, have wider curricula, are involved in research activities, and grant graduate and professional as well as undergraduate degrees. ( From the 1998 World Book Multimedia Encyclopedia, )
