For the fifth consecutive year, Kenosha School of Technology Enhanced Curriculum (KTEC) has been recognized as a Project Lead the Way (PLTW) Distinguished School for both its Launch and Gateway programs for 2021-22.

The school announced the honors in a recent press release.

PLTW is a nonprofit organization that serves millions of PreK-12 students and teachers in schools across the U.S.

KTEC has both a PLTW Launch and PLTW Gateway program. It’s one of 282 PLTW Launch programs and one of 134 PLTW Gateway programs across the country to receive recognition for 2021-22.
