More than a decade later, President Obama’s words still ring true. P-TECH is an innovative model that creates real pathways from high school to college and careers. We should be expanding opportunities like these. #StVrainAdvantage @SVVSD

One model. Six years to a career.

Every student deserves a competitive, no-cost college degree and a clear path to a career.

The Pathways in Technology Early College High School model (P-TECH) makes college affordable by design: students graduate with a high school diploma, an associate degree at no cost to their families, and real workplace experience — all in one seamless pathway.
