The school offers automotive, home construction, plumbing, and heating/air-conditioning ventilation programs. There are plenty of shops where students work on real cars brought in by people in the community. The school also has a room large enough for those studying carpentry to construct a full size wooden frame house.[3]
The New York City Department of Education planned in 2010 to close the school but the plan was cancelled after strong protests from the community.[4][5][6][7]
