Information Communication Technology Academy
The ICTA educational philosophy is that every student should have the opportunity to experience Pre- IT business technology education in middle school as a fundamental experience in their career education. We believe that it is important that a path of professional certification runs congruent to traditional education, beginning in the exploratory years of middle school. These beliefs, combined with our staff’s professional experience, create a safe, organized, collaborative environment for students to have a career exploratory experience focusing on Information Communication Technology.
