10:49 pm

10:50 pm

some real world experience and to be current and also field trips for students. we would like to highlight one academy specific, the i.t. academy. it will graduate its first senior class of their i.t. academy this year. they are affiliated with the national academy foundation which helps provide a lot of the curriculum the teachers are using. currently, they have 170 students participating. the students begin with a program of study focused in networking and computer applications. they then moved into web design, and ultimately in 12th grade, they have a project in broadcasting and video production. today in the life video where they're taking their cameras and using the skills they developed over the past three years and interacting with business partners about what is they do in classroom and their posting
10:56 pm

10:57 pm
