The Academy of Hospitality & Tourism magnet program was established in 1987, through a partnership between the American Express Foundation and the school district to prepare students for college and careers in the hospitality and tourism industries.

The Hawk’s Nest Event room will operate as a student enterprise that will serve clubs and organizations in the school.

A member program of the National Academy Foundation, more than 1,500 AOHT students have graduated since its inception.
