Best known for being a "nerd" school because of the engineering programs. It is also strong in architecture and agriculture programs. We are known for being into technology and being environmentally friendly.

Steven

Our school is best known for producing high quality students and workers with its "Learn by Doing" motto. This motto shows itself throughout the school with most classes having a lab portion that allows students to really get their hands "dirty." Students really learn how to do the things they are learning in the classroom in these labs, so when they graduate, most of the students already have experience working with the tools of their industry.
