Western School of Technology and Environmental Science in Catonsville hosted an open house about magnet programs recently.
In total, 15 high schools throughout Baltimore County offer magnet programs, and Western Tech is one. There are also eight middle schools offering such programs.
A magnet program is one offered by a public school that almost always focuses on a particular type of study, such as the performing arts or science. Magnet schools and programs enroll students from throughout an entire district, and students may decide not to attend their local school, but go to a magnet school instead.
The public schools in Baltimore County have over 100 magnet programs suitable for all grades from elementary through high school. At Western Tech specifically, eleven such programs are offered: automotive services; business finance and management; cosmetology; restaurant management and culinary arts; environmental technology; environmental science; graphic Print communications; mechanical construction with an emphasis on plumbing; health; and two programs in information technology—programming and networking pathway.
The school encourages any student in Baltimore County who is interested in any of the fields, and has a particular aptitude or talent for it, to apply. The deadline for applications for all the magnet programs the county offers is November 30.
Western Tech might consider working with a brochure printing company to create a pamphlet for Mailing to area residents describing the programs.
