About King Tech
Page Navigation
-
Career Technical Education (CTE) programs prepare students for both career options and post-secondary education and training. In addition, students will learn what will be expected of them in the world of work, create a career portfolio and develop the skills necessary to apply and interview for a job.
Academic Credit
-
CTE pathways have an extensive application of STEM: science, technology, engineering, and math, so many of our courses meet one or more of those requirements. Full-time students will fulfill other core graduation requirements through face-to-face classes, online classes, University of Alaska courses, or through credit by choice options.

Home high schools provide busing to and from King Tech. Driving is a privilege. Student parking is located on the West side of the building toward Wendler Middle School.
Dual Credit: College Credits
-
Dual Credit is an articulation agreement between the Anchorage School District and post-secondary education institutions such as the University of Alaska Anchorage, University of Alaska Fairbanks or various apprenticeship programs. ASD students can earn lower division college credit when successfully completing high school tech courses. College credits provide a head start toward a post-secondary certification or degree and may be transferable to other universities or colleges.
Internships
-
We believe that extending the classroom beyond our walls is an important piece to King Tech’s mission and so we offer a variety of opportunities for students who have demonstrated that they are good candidates for work place experiences. King Tech has a Cooperative Education Agreement that allows eligible students to participate in a six-week unpaid internship with an industry partner. The internship allows for students to “try on a career” before they leave high school and pay for training in technical school, college or apprenticeships. To be eligible, students must have completed one or more semesters of a King Tech class and meet the following criteria: 90 percent attendance, a grade of “A” or “B,” and a teacher recommendation.
