A high school built for a real second chance
We meet every student where they are, then build the plan that gets them to graduation.
Real Career Credentials
Business and Leadership, Health with CNA certification, Culinary Arts, and Media Arts. Students earn real industry credentials before they graduate.
A 4-Day School Week
High-quality instruction delivered in a 4-day week, built for working students and young parents balancing real responsibilities outside school.
Free Public Bus Passes
Public bus transportation with free passes for eligible students, based on location and distance, removes the biggest barrier to getting to school.
A Nurturing, Family Atmosphere
Students learn in a nurturing, family atmosphere where they are supported every step of the way and every child gets every chance to succeed.
PLP and Credit Recovery
Our Personalized Learning Plan helps students catch up to grade level and modify their schedule to fit real life.
A Safe, Secure Campus
Scheduled safety drills, cameras inside and outside, Safe ID, School Alerter, and metal detectors protect every student.
A real break, every single day
Akron Career Tech builds recess into every school day, indoors and outdoors when the weather permits. It gives students time to move, reset, and connect with friends before getting back to work.
Indoor Recess
Every school day includes a scheduled break inside the building, so students always have time to recharge no matter the season.
Outdoor Recess
When the weather allows, recess moves outside for fresh air, movement, and time with friends.
Akron Career Tech is a tuition-free public charter school that enrolls year-round on a first come, first served basis. Your child is accepted as soon as we have the documentation.
