Katy ISD HS students taking advantage of manufacturing engineering program

Katy High School is providing its students with a learning environment that will help them soar past the competition through the latest Career and Tech Program: Manufacturing Engineering. Students in Katy are getting the hands-on training NASA scientists dream about. And, it's all free.

"It’s like a robotics class on steroids," Monica Raumaker said.

Raumaker and Connor Brown are both seniors and are part of Katy Independent School District's latest Career and Tech Program: Manufacturing Engineering.

"It’s awesome. It’s definitely a big opportunity to get work experience before ever going into the workforce," Brown said.

The program is boosting college applications and building futures. The senior duo sees the program as a way to get acquainted with the tools they may use in their actual career.
