Three regions, three campuses
Lower Bucks students attend BCTHS full-time; central districts send students to MBIT in Jamison; Upper Bucks districts send students to UBCTS in Perkasie.
Hands-On Pathways
Career & Technical Schools of Bucks County
Three shared campuses that turn the county’s public districts into one career-and-technical network — trades, tech, health, and culinary under real-world conditions.
Bucks County’s public districts share three career and technical schools, each serving its own region: Bucks County Technical High School in Fairless Hills is a full-time comprehensive high school for six Lower Bucks districts; the Middle Bucks Institute of Technology in Jamison serves four central districts with half-day programs; and the Upper Bucks County Technical School in Perkasie serves the three Upper Bucks districts.
For families, these schools are a genuine third path: students can pursue construction trades, automotive technology, culinary arts, health sciences, cosmetology, information technology, and more — often graduating with industry certifications, apprenticeship connections, or a running start on college credit. Which campus a student can attend follows from the home district, which follows from the home address.

Part of the address math
Career-tech access rides on district residency, so the home you buy determines which campus and program menu your student can reach.

Career & Technical Schools of Bucks County — frequently asked questions
What career and technical schools serve Bucks County?
Three: Bucks County Technical High School in Fairless Hills, the Middle Bucks Institute of Technology in Jamison, and the Upper Bucks County Technical School in Perkasie. Each serves a set of the county’s thirteen public school districts.
Which districts send students to Bucks County Technical High School?
Six Lower Bucks districts: Bensalem Township, Bristol Borough, Bristol Township, Morrisville Borough, Neshaminy, and Pennsbury. BCTHS is a full-time comprehensive high school, so students attend for their entire school day.
Which districts send students to the Middle Bucks Institute of Technology?
Four central districts: Central Bucks, Centennial, Council Rock, and New Hope-Solebury. Students typically split their day between MBIT’s Jamison campus and their home high school.
Which districts send students to the Upper Bucks County Technical School?

Does career and technical school access depend on where you live?
Yes. Access follows district residency — the school district your address belongs to determines which of the three campuses your student can attend, so it is worth factoring into a home search if career-tech programs matter to your family.
Buying into Career & Technical territory?
