Beginning in 2013, Advanced Technology Academy was approved by the State of Michigan to offer an Early/Middle College Program. The Early/Middle College Program is designed to allow a pupil to earn a high school diploma and up to 60 college credits or an Associate’s Degree. Students enrolled in the program agree to stay an extra 13th year to earn their high school diploma. All participants are given a 5-year educational plan to follow to earn college credits or an Associate’s Degree. All expenses for the program (books, tuition, transportation and other fees) are paid for by Advanced Technology Academy. In the 2015-16 school year, we partnered with Henry Ford College to offer the Early/Middle College Program. The first co-hort of students chose one of three Associate Degree Paths: Pre-Engineering, Health-Care or Business.
Students are accepted into the program on the following criteria:
-PSAT/SAT/COMPASS Test Scores
-Cumulative GPA
-Teacher/Counselor Recommendation
-Personal Interview
-Writing Sample
-Passing the College Success Course
-Parent/Guardian Acceptance
In the 2015-16 school year, the second co-hort of Early/Middle College students began the program. Eight students began pursuing an Associate Degree Program in Health Care, Pre-Engineering or Business.

It uses a comprehensive communication system to facilitate tip sharing among students, parents, school personnel, community mental health service programs, the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, and law enforcement officials about harmful behaviors that threaten to disrupt the learning environment.
