Tech Programs
The BOCES Tech Center offers an opportunity to receive a technical education in a number of occupational areas. Students attend the Tech Center for part of the school day and take their academic courses at PVHS. The two-hour blocks at Tech may be scheduled in the morning, mid-day, or afternoon sessions depending on the program a student takes. Students receive three credits for each year of the occupational education program. Some of the programs at the Tech Center will allow students to accumulate college credits during 12th grade. Students must complete an application to the Tech Center and be accepted into a particular program. Applications are available from your school counselor.
