QUESTIONS?

In addition to a technical program, students can take necessary academic classes at Stafford Technical Center or Rutland High School. Stafford has a limited offering of both college prep and general academic classes. These classes are listed below. RHS classes are too extensive to list here. Students are only able to take an RHS class if the class is not offered at STC and if there is room in the class.
