George Westinghouse Career and Technical Education High School

George Westinghouse Career and Technical Education High School, established in 1919, is one of New York City's oldest and most recognized CTE high schools, known for its rich legacy and notable alumni. The school offers rigorous, industry-focused pathways in Culinary Arts, IT Support and Cybersecurity, Electrical Installation Technology, Computer Science, and Data Science through its Future Ready NYC program. Students benefit from hands-on training, opportunities to earn industry certifications, and work-based learning experiences. The school also provides Advanced Placement courses and partnerships for earning college credits. It boasts an excellent four-year graduation rate, well above the citywide median. Parents consistently report high satisfaction with the school's supportive environment and the dedication of its teachers and staff. However, college enrollment rates are below the citywide 25th percentile, and Regents exam pass rates are generally low across subjects. Student surveys indicate some concerns regarding bullying, physical altercations, and drug/alcohol use, alongside a desire for improved school cleanliness.
