Tech-Prep is a partnership formed among secondary schools, area business/industry/labor, community leaders, parents, students, and post secondary institutions. The Primary goal is to ensure that students leave high school with the knowledge, skills, and attitudes they need to participate in a high skills, high wage economy and to participate fully as productive members of their community.
