The P-TECH Experience

Students in the P-TECH Business Administration program will experience career-focused training, be a part of industry excursions and field trips, and work with local experts in their careers. The goal of P-TECH is an innovative open-enrollment high school that allows students to receive both a high school diploma and an associate degree and an industry credential. The hallmark of the P-TECH model is its career focus and the provision of work-based education.

Our pathway is designed to provide you, the student, with skills and competencies in a wide range of subjects. Our P-TECH Lab is focused on a career in Business and Marketing. The P-TECH program is open to all rising 9th graders, and if accepted, you will join us as a P-TECH student in the following school year.

If a student is no longer in the PTECH program, they must return to their original districted campus.

While a P-TECH student, all of the Lone Star college courses will be FREE – free tuition and free textbooks! All college classes are dual credit and will count toward high school completion as well as college course completion.

​

To be eligible, students must currently be in 8th grade. We have a limited number of slots as this is a competitive program.

If admitted, students will be required to attend a Summer Bridge program where they will participate in college readiness activities and TSI preparation and testing.
