The Early College and Career Pathways Partnership allows students at Buffalo’s Charter School for Applied Technologies a chance to dual-enroll at SUNY Buffalo State or SUNY Erie to earn up to 55 college credits.
CSAT Assistant Principal Brett Lutterbein said the program will introduce students of all backgrounds to higher education.
“We believe that this program, the vision for this program, will be a catalyst for equity in Western New York by providing college level coursework, exposure to careers in the Buffalo community,” said Lutterbein. “This is ultimately a game-changer for our school community.”
Academic areas the partnership focuses on include health and human services, business, communications, and manufacturing.
