Bosco Tech to Host Open House on January 27

Jan. 7, 2013 - PRLog -- Don Bosco Technical Institute (Bosco Tech) will host its Open House on Sunday, January 27, 2013, from 12 noon to 3 p.m.

Prospective students, their families and members of the community can tour the school’s extensive applied-science technology labs where unmanned aerial vehicles and competitive programmed robots will be featured. Laboratory science displays and engineering demonstrations will also be available for viewing.

“We understand that choosing a high school is not an easy process,” said Rudy Herrera, the school’s Director of Admissions. “Events like this expose prospective students to the exciting things a technology-based high school has to offer. If a student is thinking about becoming a doctor, engineer, architect or working in one of the emerging green technologies, Bosco Tech should be a school on his list.”

A Catholic Mass will precede the Open House in the school’s Fr. Felix Penna chapel at 9:30 a.m. During the service, the current freshman class will receive their class ties, presented by the school’s alumni association. The association will host a breakfast for all returning alumni following the Mass.

Bosco Tech is California’s only Catholic high school with an integrated applied science and engineering program, uniquely blending a college-preparatory course load with a comprehensive, four-year, project-based science and technology program. The curriculum allows students to exceed university admission requirements while completing extensive integrated coursework in one of several engineering-related fields: Architecture and Construction Engineering; Computer Science and Electrical Engineering; Integrated Design, Engineering and Art; Materials Science, Engineering and Technology; and Media Arts and Technology.
