ACADEMY OF CRAFT TRAINING – IRONDALE
The Academy of Craft Training is located in Birmingham, near Irondale, and recruits students each spring who will be either juniors or seniors for the next school year. A bus runs each afternoon for students to take classes at the Academy. All academic courses are taken in the morning at MHS. The only cost to students and parents is a pair of steel-toed boots. Students who plan to enter the workforce immediately after graduation in the fields of masonry, HVAC/plumbing, or electrical have an opportunity to attend classes at the Academy of Craft Training. These trades are in high demand in our area.
