Amarillo ISD Board takes action to make progress on AmTech Career Academy
During the most recent meeting of the Amarillo Independent School District Board of Trustees, the board took action on numerous measures, helping the AmTech Career Academy progress to its initial opening for students in August.
According to previous reporting by the Amarillo Globe-News, students were given the initial opportunity to pre-register for classes at AmTech, located at 3601 Plains, in January.
The academy will be an expansion of the Amarillo Area Center for Advanced Learning (AACAL) and will have nine schools, including the School of Architecture, Construction and Manufacturing, as well as the School of Medical Arts. Those schools consist of more than 30 pathways for students, including animal science, plumbing and audio/visual (TV) production.
