At JRTI, we believe every student deserves the support they need to be successful. That’s exactly what Mr. and Mrs. Gosk do every single day through our Student Support Services department. From coordinating accommodations for students with IEPs and 504s to working directly with teachers and schools, they make sure no student falls through the cracks. We are so grateful to have them here! 💙

This is what hands on learning looks like at JRTI. Our HVAC students work on projects like tearing out old duct work and prepping for a brand new installation. These are real projects, real skills, and real preparation for whatever comes after graduation.
