Opened in 2013, Donna J. Beasley Technical Academy (DJB) is a nonprofit (501c3) tuition-free charter high school for our at-risk students in Lee County.  DJB supports students in achieving their high school diploma and prepares them for college and career success through an individually paced, technology-based, flexibly scheduled program. We provide students who have fallen behind in their graduation requirements to obtain their diplomas. With the help of community partners, businesses, and industry leaders, we supply the academic and technical skills necessary to be successful in today's economy. We provide students with "their best second chance".

"We are excited to expand and provide additional opportunities for our students in the Lee County area", states Dr. Torregrasso, Principal.

The building is due for completion in Winter 2024.  For more information, please contact Angeli Chin, Director of Fundraising & Grants at achin@beasleytec.org, or visit our website at www.beasleytec.org.  To RSVP, please visit https://forms.gle/GvtZJJWtqDX8cs4t8.
