FRIENDSHIP ACADEMY OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY

Friendship Academy of Engineering and Technology is a Title I public high school that is part of the Baltimore City Public Schools school district, located in Baltimore, MD with about 306 students offering grade levels from 6th Grade to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 27 teachers, Friendship Academy of Engineering and Technology has a student/teacher ratio of about 11:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

The Friendship Academy of Engineering and Technology (FAET), located at 2500 E. Northern Parkway in Baltimore, is a public school within the Baltimore City Public School System that emphasizes a specialized curriculum focused on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics). Serving students in the middle and high school grade levels, the school is designed to bridge the gap between traditional academics and the practical application of engineering principles. By integrating project-based learning into its daily instruction, FAET aims to prepare students for rigorous college programs and competitive 21st-century career paths.

Beyond its technical focus, the school seeks to foster a supportive learning community that emphasizes academic excellence, critical thinking, and character development. As part of the broader Baltimore City school district, FAET works to provide its students with hands-on experiences, modern resources, and exposure to real-world technology challenges. The school's mission is largely centered on empowering its diverse student body with the technical literacy and problem-solving skills necessary to succeed in an increasingly globalized, technology-driven workforce.
