<p>My son choose Tech Academy over Governor’s School because it is want he enjoys. In his HS Engineering Program, he is earning college creditsfrom RPI through PLTW. When it is time to apply for college, Admissions Offices may not see him as a well rounded student. He enjoys STEM classes and excels at the them. An Admissions Counselor from our flagship state university told me they were not necessarily looking for a well rounded student but a well rounded class of students. </p>
<p>Also my son is an athlete and got a A in Weightlifting class. It does not compare to an honors or AP class but he enjoyed and it gve him a break after honors English class. </p>
