Preparing Texas Students for a Successful Future
Prospective CCRSM Campus
In order to operate as a Texas Education Agency-approved Pathways in Technology Early College High School (P-TECH) or Early College High School (ECHS), all prospective P-TECH and ECHS must engage in a planning year prior to receiving P-TECH or ECHS designation from TEA.
Designation Renewal Information
Designated P-TECH and ECHS campuses must reapply for designation every academic year. Campuses can only apply for designation renewal if they hold a designation status, including a planning, provisional, or designated status, in the current academic year. Please note that if you are a multi-model campus and operate both ECHS and P-TECH programs, you must submit a application for each model.
