The Rev. Angela Walker

Dear Educator/Counselor:

We value your commitment to the educational success of your students. For this reason, I ask you to share the benefits of Tech Prep with those students who wish to get a head start on pursuing a technical degree or certification:

  • Tech Prep uses varied approaches to math, science, and English to students who typically do not see the connection between traditional teaching methods and practice.
  • Cooperation between high schools and the secondary and post-secondary institutions creates a shared interest in student learning that is challenging and exciting, resulting in students who are prepared for the workforce and collegiate study should they decide to pursue it.
  • In most cases, Tech Prep students are required to attend 90 percent of the school year. Therefore, more Tech Prep students means an increase in the number of students attending schools regularly, taking more rigorous courses, achieving high scores on standardized tests, earning better grades, and pursing undergraduate study.

Your support is important to us. If you have questions about our program, or if you know students who are interested in applying to our program, please contact us Monday-Friday 8:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m. at 740.351.3370.

Sincerely,

 

Angela V. Walker,

Ohio South Tech Prep Director
