Lycoming Career and Technology Center is a small suburban, public, career training center located in Hughesville, Pennsylvania. The School serves the residents of five local public school districts: East Lycoming School District, Loyalsock Township School District, Montoursville Area School District, Muncy School District and Warrior Run School District. Lycoming Career and Technology Center is located on the campus of Hughesville Junior Senior High School in the East Lycoming School District. Non public school students that live in one of the five participating districts are able to attend the School. Districts are responsible for transporting their students to and from the school by bus. The home school district pays an annual tuition rate to Lycoming Career and Technology Center for each pupil that attends. Lycoming Career and Technology Center is one of 80 public technology schools operating in Pennsylvania.[14]

Lycoming Career and Technology Center offers a choice of three different attendance options. Students may enroll in one year or two year half day programs. A third program offers Work Experience Programs. Students attend their home school for basic academics required for graduation like: literature, science, civics and math. Students graduate from their home district. Lycoming Career and Technology Center also offers evening and weekend adult continuing education programs.

Lycoming Career & Technology Center Joint Operating Committee governs the school meeting on a monthly basis.[15] It is made up of delegates appointed by each participating school board. Local school board must approve the School's annual budget proposal. The School's Articles of Agreement require an affirmative vote of 2/3rds of the participating districts and a majority vote of all school directors of the member schools to approve a budget. Lycoming Career & Technology Center also receives annual Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Improvement Act of 2006 - Perkins IV grants.[16] In 2015, the school received $95,874.

Programs

Students take the appropriate NOCTI exams offered by the National Occupational Competency Testing Institute. They can also participate in the annual SkillsUSA competitions.
