P-TECH - Pathways in Technology Early College High School -- blends high school and college coursework, providing students the opportunity to earn an industry certification and college hours toward an Associate degree, at no cost to the student or family. Industries chosen for P-TECH are in-demand, high-wage jobs in the local community.
Taylor ISD has implemented the Precision Machining program option to support our local growth and potential. We are committed to providing a college-going and work-based learning environment where students earn their high school diploma, Applied Associates in Science and the possibility at multiple industry certificates.
While all students will have access to the program, the core mission of P-TECH is to give prospective first-generation and other students typically underrepresented in higher education a no-cost option to earn a two-year college degree and post-secondary certifications, allowing them to go into the workforce or transfer to a four-year college or university. Students will have a structured environment that will provide adequate support to ensure successful completion of the college courses.
