Exhibition Night Information

Congratulations to our seniors and math exhibition participants.

Middle School Design Challenge

On Saturday, December 2, Energy welcomed nearly 80 middle school students to our Middle School Design Challenge. Students had the opportunity to meet other potential classmates, teachers, administrators, and upperclass students. During the event students participated in a series of STEM challenges on a team. The winning teams received medals created in-house on our laser cutters. It was so great to meet so many of our future Energy students! And a huge thank you to everyone who took the time on a Saturday to help with the event.

UTI Field Trip



On Friday, December 8th, 35 students had the opportunity to attend the Universal Technical Institute (UTI). UTI is the leading training provider for students preparing for careers as professional automotive, diesel, collision repair, motorcycle, marine, CNC machining, and welding technicians. Trades are a hidden gem but are perfect for Energy students as they can carry over the skill sets they have learned in their high school manufacturing and engineering classes.

Congratulations Ms. Olga



Congratulations to Ms. Olga on her well deserved retirement. Olga has been at Energy from almost the beginning and will be greatly missed. She has been the first person on-campus every day for years and has put so much hard work into the school. She is looking forward to sleeping in! Congratulations Olga!

Digital SAT Is Coming



Energy students took the Digital PSAT this fall. Starting in 2024, the SAT will be transitioning to a digital exam as well. We have teamed up with Revolution Prep to offer students more support and additional resources. Revolution Prep is offering our students an opportunity to take the new Digital SAT Practice exam online for free! The test will take place at home on Saturday, January 20, 2024 from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM. You can register at https://www.revolutionprep.com/partners/139673/. Students will receive a detailed score report and will be able to review the exam and wrong answers. They will also be able to meet with a Revolution Prep to review their score. This is a great opportunity to get extra practice in for juniors prior to the Spring SAT.
