Vancouver iTech Preparatory (iTech Prep) is a public school located in Vancouver, Clark County, Washington. It is located in the Battle Ground Public Schools boundary, but is operated by Vancouver Public Schools.[1] Due to this, 10% of the program's enrollment is reserved for Battle Ground students.
It is a public STEM Magnet school for grades 6-12. The middle school program for grades 6-8 used to be operated at the Jim Parsley Community Center (JPCC) and the high school program for grades 9-12 at the main campus within Washington State University Vancouver.[2]
The school now operates with all grades combined in their new building dedicated 2020.[3]
The school focuses on STEM subjects (classes such as Physics, Algebra (1 and 2), Geometry, Pre Calculus, Statistics, Psychology, Sociology, Astronomy, Environmental Science, Arslanology, and Zoology) while using project-based learning, where a student is taught something then creates a workpiece that shows that the student learned what was taught.[4]
iTech has in the past worked with WSUV and Clark College to get early college programs available to students who have spent at least 1 semester in the high school program.
The interim principal is Zachary Tautfest and the associate principal is Alex Otoupal.[5]
