Tri-Tech Skills Center offers Juniors and Seniors an opportunity to get a head start on a career and after high school training. Students learn skills to be successful in entry-level jobs while at the same time earning high school credits. In addition, most programs offer college credit through CTE Direct Credit. Students who successfully complete a program can earn up to 1.5 occupational and/or elective credits each semester. Some programs offer English, Math, Lab Science, Fitness and/or Visual Art equivalency credits for successful completion of the 2nd consecutive semester in the same program. Bus transportation is provided to programs at Tri-Tech. Students planning to enroll in a Tri-Tech course must meet with their counselor to complete an application form. There are a limited number of openings at Tri-Tech so be sure to talk to your counselor soon.
Second year program available to eligible students who maintain a B or better both semesters, have good attendance, no discipline issues and teacher recommendation. Eligible student names will be given to home schools who make the final decisions on who will attend. Only a limited number of second year students will be accepted, and the focus will be on skill enhancement and work-based learning placement so students need their own transportation. Returning students who want to attend a different program will have to meet the same eligibility requirements.
