How does it work?High school liaisons will identify students who are eligible for Turning Point. The student will stay enrolled at the high school, but will attend all classes at Central Tech. This allows learners to receive a high school diploma from their high school upon completing the program and meeting high school graduation requirements.

Is it the same as a GED?No. A GED is a high school equivalency exam. With Turning Point, students are still enrolled as a high school student and will receive a high school diploma from their school.

Turning Point allows students to attend Central Techtuition free - receiving academic coursework required for high school graduation and technical training simultaneously.
