About Us - BRYSS Academy High School P-TECH

At BRYSS Academy High School P-TECH, we are redefining what high school can be. Our students don’t just earn a diploma; they graduate with college credits and industry-based certifications that open doors to high-demand careers and future success.

As a recipient of the 2025–2027 Planning and Implementation Grant, the 2025–2026 school year has been a pivotal planning year for BRYSS. We have intentionally built new partnerships and strengthened existing ones, always keeping students at the center of every decision. Our foundation is rooted in trust, mutual respect, and full transparency with our industry and higher education partners.

What truly sets BRYSS apart is our commitment to meaningful relationships and real-world relevance. Our educators, counselors, and industry mentors work side-by-side to support, guide, and challenge students to reach their full potential. Here, students are known, supported, and inspired to lead.

At BRYSS Academy, we are not just preparing students for the future, we are empowering them to build it.

Beyond the Blueprint

Our work is already making an impact beyond our campus. At the Partners Connect 2026 Conference in San Antonio (May 8–9, 2026), BRYSS staff, alongside an industry and higher education partner, presented “Beyond the Blueprint: Building a Thriving P-TECH Campus that Inspires Students and Communities” highlighting our commitment to going beyond compliance to create a truly transformative program.

Building Tomorrow's Workforce Through Partnership and Trust

Mark Hodgson, Regional General Manager of SA Recycling LLC, is a strong advocate for building meaningful industry-education partnerships that create lasting impact. In his message, he emphasizes the importance of relationships grounded in trust and mutual respect as the foundation for successful collaboration between schools and industry.

Through his leadership and support of the P-TECH initiative, Mr. Hodgson highlights how investing in students today directly strengthens the workforce of tomorrow. He encourages fellow industry leaders to get involved, partner with schools, and play an active role in developing skilled, career-ready talent that will benefit both their companies and the broader community.

Built on trust, mutual respect, and strong partnerships, BRYSS Academy connects students to meaningful pathways that lead from the classroom to college, careers, and lifelong success.
