December 8, 2021P-TECH is a pioneering high school model that stands out as an effective strategy to better prepare students for workforce opportunities in STEM, and to build a diverse, highly skilled workforce pipeline. There are more than 127 P-TECH high schools operating in ten states, but none are located here in Massachusetts. Many have been launched in low-income communities with large populations of students of color to accelerate access to STEM careers from historically underserved communities. Read our paper to learn more about the history of P-TECH, results to date, the role of key stakeholders in launching and sustaining a P-TECH initiative, and why the time is right for Massachusetts to embrace P-TECH.
View our October 12, 2021 webinar exploring the P-TECH model of Early College high school and featuring national and state leaders from education, business and government.
