Boerne P-TECH Academy

Boerne ISD's Pathways in Technology Early College High School (P-TECH) is an innovative, open-enrollment high school focusing on cyber security. This program of study allows students an opportunity to receive both a high school diploma and a credential and/or an associate degree. The hallmark of the P-TECH model is its career focus and the provision of work-based education.

P-TECH programs:

• Provide students grades 9 through 12 the opportunity to complete a course of study that combines high school and post-secondary courses.
• Enable students to earn a high school diploma, along with an associate degree, Level 1 certificate or industry-based certification.
• Offer age-appropriate work-based learning opportunities at every grade level.
• Allow students to gain work experience through an internship, apprenticeship, or other job training program.
• Align to regional workforce needs, guiding students into high-demand, high-wage careers.
• Partner with local colleges and regional businesses and industries, giving students access to post-secondary education and workforce training opportunities.

OUR MISSION

As part of the Career and Technical Education department, the Boerne ISD P-TECH Academy collaboratively engages students, parents, and industry partners to create a learning environment conducive to developing problem-solvers, global leaders and collaborative team players.  Through this program, students will explore and master skills required for high school completion in combination with earning college credits, industry certifications and work-based experience.  Upon completing this program of study,  students will have the knowledge and skills necessary to enter the Cyber Security work force and/or continue their studies at a four-year higher learning institution.

OUR VISION

We will unify and educate students, parents, staff,  school leadership and our greater community to strategically utilize resources and create opportunities to prepare students for in-demand, high-skill, high-wage careers.
