History

HS2 Academy was founded in 2002 by Ann Lee, a graduate of the Harvard Graduate School of Education. Originally built to provide supplemental SAT preparation and computer training classes, HS2 expanded quickly into an educational haven for 4th-12th grade students. HS2 started in Walnut, then to San Marino in April 2007, and then to Cerritos in April 2008. Serving students from all over the world--from Hong Kong to Korea to China--HS2 prides itself on its quality programs that have attracted students for six years.
