I've attended Grasso tech for four years and loved my experience there. The opportunity to take up a trade and get experience in something you enjoy doing makes the experience so much more pleasing. I personally went to Grasso and took up hairdressing and cosmetology and I'm going for my hairdressing license soon. Having such a great opportunity to go right into a salon after I graduate is wonderful. Grasso also offers work-based learning at some jobs related to your shop which allows you to work during school hours and get paid. Overall Grasso is a great school and I would do it all over again.

I was a graduate of 2017 and It was good experience. The trades are ok I took IST and it was ok but the curriculum could've been better and more focused on technology instead of secretary applications. Overall This school is better than my home town high school.

I am currently a senior at Grasso Tech and I am loving it. I've attended two high schools previous to here and Grasso is where I feel most at home. The teachers really care about the students, and even though the academics aren't exactly rigorous, it's in the shops where you find that the students a...
