How do I know if College Tech Prep is right for a particular student?
College Tech Prep was designed mainly for students in the middle majority — the 66% of American youth who usually just drift through high school. Most of these students have no real focus — they tend to take random, “easy” courses and graduate with no skill base to earn a living, or the academics they need to be ready for college. They may also be “C” and “B” students who could do better, but who don’t seem to be interested enough in school to work up to their potential. College Tech Prep programs engage students’ interest! These programs deliver college prep academics with hands-on applications. The program stresses project-based learning — all classes are taught within the context of career preparation. A student who is bored by most traditional classroom learning but who shows an aptitude for high-tech fields, such as health care, computers, or engineering, will usually flourish in a Tech Prep program.
