A high school in Crown Heights is helping Brooklyn students secure jobs after graduation.
Students at Pathways In Technology Early College High School are preparing for their future through a curriculum that allows them to go from high school to college to a career.
P-Tech is a public school that gives students the opportunity to continue their education after receiving their high school diploma, and allows them to obtain an associate degree in the field of science, technology, engineering or math.

The school aims to help students graduate with their degree at no-cost, while getting hands-on career experience through internships.

Students say the school helps them get one step closer to doing what they love.
Teachers say the students will be prepared to enter the workforce with the knowledge and skills that they have gained at P-Tech.
