Vo-Tech Programs

Vocational School
 

 The Mercer County Technical School District offers opportunities for students to participate in career and technical education programs while in high school. The programs prepare students for college and careers. Many of the programs allow students to earn college credit and/or industry certification for the work completed in high school. 

Students can only apply for shared-time programs in 10th grade, as they are two year programs (11th & 12th). Career Prep programs should be applied for in 11th grade as they are only offered for 12th graders. Students who elect to attend the Mercer County Technical School programs will continue to identify Ewing as their home school. This includes the ability to participate in extracurricular activities and sports. On full days of school, students will have lunch at Ewing High School, if it can be scheduled. Transportation to and from the technical schools will be provided. Students may earn 20 credits toward graduation for each year of successful completion of the career and technical education program. Most programs are for two years with the exception of identified one-year programs. There is no cost to Mercer County resident high school students.
