If you are a student
Welcome to Discovery Academy, a high school initiative of St. Cloud Technical College. We have a partnership with participating high schools, making the high school eligible to offer technical courses at the college level.
The courses offered are taught either by college faculty, or a local high school teacher who has direct involvement with the college instructor to assure that the integrity of the course is maintained.
If you would like to get involved, start by contacting your High School Guidance Counselor, check to see what courses are available at your school, and fill out an application form. Or you can contact Sandy Fabian at 320-308-8888 or sfabian@sctc.edu.
