​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Caloundra State High School offers Signature Programs in Academic, Athletic and Arts Programs that are designed to assist students in reaching their full potential.

Our Academic Programs nurture and develop academically talented students to extend and maximise their potential.  Our Athletic Signature Programs are conducted in partnership with local and regional community sporting organisations and are led by industry professionals.

All programs require a significant commitment  of time and effort outside of school hours.  

Entry to all programs is by application only. ​ Some pr​ograms​ will also require the student to trial or audition. ​​​
