This year’s tour features one of the newest buildings at Fresno High School. The Career and Technical Education building opened just over a year ago. It reimagines CTE at Fresno High from its former location in a decommissioned auto shop built in l951.

The two-story building covers almost 23,000 square feet. Construction cost approximately $8 million and was funded by Measure X, a $225 million bond passed by votes in 2016, as well as a state CTE facilities grant. The building features space for the heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) program, construction shops and yards and a presentation center—home of the career center. It is also the home of the school’s production program, Warrior Entertainment, a video production career pathway featuring a recording studio, sound studio and stage.

For the tour, the Fresno High band will be performing in the presentation center from 5:30-8:00. Fresno High students serving as student ambassadors will be giving guided tours of the latest technology being taught in the building.
