You are cordially invited to observe and/or participate in the FIRST EVER Southwest Career and Technical Academy’s – “Imagine Tomorrow: S.W.C.T.A. Information Technology Conference 2012″. This conference will be delivered by the freshman, sophomore and junior classes in the Hospitality, Video Game and Web Development programs on our campus.
The students have invited close to 200 local middle school students to attend. These students will participate in an opening session to acquaint them with our campus and listen to community service opportunities of their own. In addition, they will attend different workshops on Google Apps for Education, iWeb, Google Sites, Photoshop, video game design and MORE taught by our video game and web development students.
We hope you will be able to spend some time with us and see how this next generation has captured the spirit of community service.
