TCHS provides students with authentic learning experiences in their chosen fields of study. This fall, culinary arts students worked with Penn London Elementary School for a special field trip opportunity.
PENN — Aspiring chefs, cosmetologists, nurses and engineers, among others, are encouraged to explore career and technical opportunities at the Technical College High School (TCHS) Pennock’s Bridge Campus on Wednesday, January 28. The open house will be held from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m., during which time prospective students and their families can tour the building, meet teachers and students, learn about the programs and enjoy light refreshments provided by culinary arts students. The school is located at 280 Pennock’s Bridge Road in West Grove.
The Technical College High School is a joint venture of the Chester County Intermediate Unit (CCIU) and Delaware County Community College (DCCC).
