Sophomores

As sophomores you will have the opportunity to tour the OTC Career Center. Mrs. Beckner and Mrs. Day will take a group of sophomores to OTC during the fall semester.  The purpose of the tour is for you to become acquainted with the OTC Career Center and the programs that could be offered to you as juniors or seniors. 

 

About the OTC Career Center:

OTC Career Center students earn free college credit while still in high school and become college and career ready. Juniors and seniors from area high schools have a unique opportunity to jump-start college. Qualified high school juniors and seniors can earn up to 40 hours of free college credits in specialized career and technical programs while earning their high school diploma. Students use state-of-the-art equipment and experience hands-on instruction by the area's top career and technical educators. OTC Career Center students' tuition is paid by the local high school district and does not utilize A+ Scholarship funds.
 

The experience is designed to guide students toward college and career readiness. When students attend OTC Career Center they may work toward an Associate of Applied Science (A.A.S.) degree or Certificates of Achievement or Specialization after completing the required courses. To be eligible for the certificates, a cumulative grade point average of 2.0 ("C") or better is required. Enrollment through the OTC Career Center is an excellent way for students to explore their futures, supplement courses available at their high school, learn about careers, develop high tech skills needed in today's global economy and workforce and prepare for full time enrollment at a community college or university.
