P-Tech is coming to Rhode Island.
The popular Pathways in Technology Early College High School, which has roots in Brooklyn, New York, is continuing to expand to other states after President Barack Obama touted the model in his 2013 State of the Union address.
Rhode Island Gov. Gina Raimondo included the creation of the schools, which would allow students to fast-track their high school education by graduating with a community college degree, in her proposed fiscal year 2016 budget, according to Providence Business News.
