The Dr. James A. Forrest Career and Technology Center is one of the jewels in the St. Mary’s County Public School System. We pride ourselves on 23 separate career and technology programs that strive to prepare students for post secondary education or entry level employment, depending on the program chosen by the student.
The engineering program prepares students for entry into a two or four-year college engineering program. It will apply problem-solving techniques and concepts of mechanical drafting and CADD, 3-D design and modeling, CNC operations, coding for robotics, reverse engineering, electrical vehicle technology, drone design and autonomous operation, and G-Code along with other engineering innovations.
