The Clean Technologies & Sustainable Industries Early College High School (Clean Tech ECHS) was developed by the Ballston Spa Central School District in partnership with Hudson Valley Community College (HVCC) and the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA). The program has grown regionally from originally serving 25 students from two school districts in 2011, to now serving almost 300 students from 19 school districts in ten counties. Juniors and seniors in the program earn up to 24 college credits from HVCC in this ECHS model that was established in 2011. In 2013 the program was designated by Governor Cuomo as a New York State P-TECH school, providing additional support as the program continues to grow and serve more students from a regional perspective. Students in the program have the option to explore one of four career pathways including Clean Energy; Computer Science & Information Systems; Entrepreneurship, Leadership & Innovation; and Nanotechnology/Mechatronics.
