EVIT - Skyline High School

To provide an accurate summary, it is important to clarify that **EVIT (East Valley Institute of Technology)** and **Skyline High School** are two distinct institutions that share a campus location. While they operate in tandem to serve students in Mesa, Arizona, they offer very different educational experiences.

**Skyline High School** is a traditional comprehensive public high school within the Mesa Public Schools district. It offers a standard high-school curriculum focused on core academics—such as English, mathematics, science, and history—alongside extracurricular activities, athletics, and social opportunities typical of a large suburban school. It serves students in grades 9–12 and provides the foundation for students to earn their high school diplomas.

**EVIT**, located on the same property, is a specialized career and technical education (CTE) district. It does not function as a traditional "all-day" high school for most students; instead, it serves as a supplement to a student’s home high school. Students at Skyline (and other area schools) typically attend EVIT for half of the day to receive hands-on vocational training in fields such as health sciences, culinary arts, cosmetology, welding, aviation, and digital media. By attending both, students can graduate with their high school diploma while simultaneously earning industry certifications and college credits, providing a streamlined path into the workforce or advanced technical education.
