: Berkeley Technology Academy (B-Tech) is a continuation high school diploma program designed to meet the needs of students sixteen through eighteen years of age who have not graduated from high school and are deemed at risk of not completing their education.

The schools’ ambition is to contest traditional notions of a high school graduate by providing an uncompromising, rigorous education for all our students and to reverse underachievement in students performing below their potential.

There are 170 students at B-Tech. The school seeks to challenge negative expectations of this population by offering a curriculum that meets the UC/CSU requirements for graduation, holding students to rigorous college-preparatory academic standards, and creating an environment that speaks to realities of students’ lives and needs.
