WE BELIEVE PASSION IS THE MAGIC INGREDIENT!
You’ll find it in our dedicated teachers, instructors, administrators, and support staff who share your commitment to your teen’s success. At the heart of this commitment is a dynamic relationship between our teachers and your teen, and a culture of learning that is transforming education in new and exciting ways.
Blackstone Valley Tech (BVT) is not your typical high school. From the vocational-technical shops to state-of-the-art laboratories and advanced placement courses, our school is home to teachers who creatively share their expertise by integrating classroom learning and real-world, hands-on projects. Understanding that every student learns differently, our teachers take the time to nurture your teen’s interests while teaching them to navigate obstacles, strategically embrace challenges, and celebrate achievements. Students, in turn, have a unique opportunity to explore multiple career paths, hone their skills, and discover their passion and purpose in life.
As a result of BVT's culture of respect and high expectations, your teen will graduate as a confident and empowered young adult — one who has found a voice, charted a course, and is ready to make a mark on the world. Come share the passion, and be part of the BVT family!
