The Alabama School of Cyber Technology and Engineering (ASCTE) is an American high school located in Huntsville, Alabama.[1][2] Founded in 2018, it is the first tuition-free residential high school focused on the integration of cyber technology and engineering across all academic disciplines.[2] The school puts a focus on the teaching various topics relating to cyber, technology, and engineering, integrating such topics into core classes.[3] The school is a state-owned magnet school that requires an application.[4] Funds are provided through sponsorship of major companies, in exchange for internships that the students complete their senior year.[5][6]

Academics

ASCTE offers core classes, as well as additional topic-specific classes related to cyber, technology, and engineering. These classes include Mathematics, Science, English, History, Cyber, and Engineering. There are three terms in a school year, and each class (except for 401 classes) takes two terms to complete. This allows students to do four years of classes in three years.[3]

The last year of a students time at ASCTE is spent doing an internship at one of ASCTE's several sponsors. Notable sponsors include Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin, Leidos, and Raytheon. This is preceded by a capstone project, which is chosen by the student.[5][6]

Student life

ASCTE students can choose to either live on campus in a dormitory, or to migrate themselves to and from the school.[7] Residential students do not have to pay for boarding unless they live near the ASCTE building. Food is also provided for all students free of charge, as well as tuition.[8] Activities are regularly hosted, although most events are exclusive to residential students.
