Chicago Tech Academy High School (ChiTech) is a non-profit, four-year contract school that uses a fully integrated project-based learning model to inspire, educate, and connect a diverse new generation of technology leaders. It is our mission to offer all students a chance to experience a different type of education, one focused on helping students become career and college ready through authentic experience. With engaging, hands-on projects that tackle real world problems, students get to work closely with experts in the field and learn the value of high quality work that makes a difference. ChiTech is committed to closing the opportunity gap and striving for equity so that all students develop skills for college success, meaningful employment in the 21st century workforce, and life beyond.

Our core is built on community involvement. At ChiTech Academy, we do things differently and our success is measurable! With 400 students enrolled for this upcoming school year, our enrollment is at its highest yet. Our percentage of freshmen on-track and our college enrollment rate have never been higher.

ChiTech has created an abundance of new certifiable programs, which include internships, industry mentors and courses like: photoshop, HTML5, CSS3, Ruby, jQuery, networking systems, video editing, music production and digital recording.

Show your support for our young women and men by giving today. If you are interested in learning more, visit our site to learn about mentorship opportunities and providing day, week and month long student internships.
