P-tech Schools

This article is about "P-tech" schools that are spreading around the country. Instead of graduating high school in four years with skills in math, history, English, and science, students at these schools are learning different types of material that apply more to modern society. They teach mostly about technology, but offer other courses that the institution believes will help these kids find more jobs. Due to the economy and unemployment rate, the popularity of these types of schools are rising because of the courses they have to offer. They have found that many recent college graduates cannot find jobs that directly relate to their majors or focus, and are forced to sacrifice their passion in order to find a job. These schools are very effective because they are teaching kids exactly what they need to know for a life outside of high  school.
