School is back in session for Central A&M School District which means some students will venture to Heartland Tech Academy, based out of Richland Community College, to begin pursuing their respective trades specialties.

Superintendent Sacha Young with Central A&M says these students will receive hands-on experience in fields like welding, auto mechanics and even an introduction to the certified nursing assistant program.

Superintendent Young notes that tuition for Heartland Tech Academy has gone down recently and that credits will be received by the student while pursuing this off-campus learning.
