SHS, or Senior High School, is an educational stage that typically follows Junior High School and precedes higher education or vocational training. It usually encompasses grades 11 and 12, where students are around 16 to 18 years old. The curriculum often includes a mix of core subjects, electives, and specialized tracks that prepare students for college or careers. In many countries, SHS is designed to provide students with essential skills and knowledge, fostering critical thinking and personal development. Students may choose from various programs, such as academic, technical, or vocational, depending on their interests and future goals.
