Introducing NOLA Tech!

 This morning Reginald Coleman, Principal of NOLA Tech (and founding Principal of Clark Prep) was on WWL-TV to talk about NOLA Career and Technical Academy.

NOLA Career and Technical Academy (NOLA Tech), opening for the 2014-15 school year, will offer a compelling pathway to students interested in pursuing a career directly after high school graduation.  Through a partnership with Delgado Community College City Park Campus, NOLA Tech will provide students the opportunity to earn a high school diploma and technical certificate concurrently.  

NOLA Tech will also focus on soft-skills for the workplace, career awareness, character development, community service and independent living skills.  The creation of this high school will help diversify the range of educational program offerings for high school students in New Orleans.  

NOLA Tech is an innovative model for expanding workforce development capacity in our region by preparing high school graduates to take advantage of opportunities in burgeoning industries across New Orleans, the state of Louisiana, and beyond.

We are excited to be opening this new school in New Orleans next year. The NOLA Tech website will launch in early November - and we'll continue to share information here, as well.
