Automotive High School

Our school strongly believes that student choice leads to student success. As such, students have an opportunity to choose from four pathways that lead to graduation: Engineering, Law Enforcement, Automotive Applied Science, or Business Entrepreneurship. Our motto, ‘Experience teaches – so that we may fly by our own wings,’ speaks to our dedication to empowering students in creating and following the academic and social paths that will lead them to success.

Students must successfully complete industry-based assessments and the required hours to be eligible for Work Based Learning and internships. Successful completion of the program results in CTE Certification and ASE/NATEF entry level certifications.
• Students in our Business Technology program are required to take courses in accounting, marketing, business writing, and virtual enterprise. Incoming students will be eligible for internships and will participate in local and state competitions.

• Students in our Mechanical Engineering program complete a minimum of four math courses and a three-year engineering sequence by the time they graduate. Students will learn how to use technology such as AutoCAD to take their ideas from concept stage to the production stage. Extracurricular opportunities such as Robotics and SkillsUSA will afford students the opportunity to continue to develop their skills.
