PTECH stands for Pathways in Technology Early College High School
Pathways in Technology Early College High Schools (P-TECH) is an open-enrollment program that provides students with work-based education. P-TECH programs:
- Provide students grade 9 through 12 the opportunity to complete a course of study that combines high school and post-secondary courses.
- Within six years, enable students to earn a high school diploma, an associate degree, a two-year post-secondary certificate or industry certification, and complete work-based training.
- Allow students to gain work experience through an internship, apprenticeship, or other job training programs.
- Partner with Texas Institutions of Higher Education (IHEs) and regional businesses and industries, giving students access to post-secondary education and workforce training opportunities.
The Texas Education Agency (TEA) will collaborate with the Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) and the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB) to develop and implement a plan for the P-TECH program that addresses:
- Regional workforce needs.
- Course credit transfer policies between IHEs.
- Internships, apprenticeships, and other work-based education programs for P-TECH students
Under the authority of the Texas Education Code and the Texas Administrative Code, the TEA developed a designation process for the P-TECH program. This designation process ensures that public school districts and charter schools operating P-TECH campuses maintain the integrity of the model.
Texas is home to 34 designated P-TECH Schools and Lytle ISD is one of 28 planning campuses for the 2018-2019 school year.

Student Cell Phone Policy Enforcement
Dear Parents,
As the school year's final semester gets ready to end, we are finding that an increasing number of school-issued electronic devices are not being brought to school, charged and ready for use in the classroom. To offset the lack of school-issued devices in the classroom, teachers have been allowing students to use their phones to complete assignments. Unfortunately, cell phone usage has extended beyond completing classwork and has caused a disruption of the educational process. As a result, the cell phone policy, as found in the student handbook, will be enforced beginning in January. The policy states that cell phones can only be used before and after school, as well as during lunch.
For those students and parents that have been diligent in ensuring their child brings their school-issued device to school daily, we would like to thank you. For the students that have not brought their devices to school regularly, we ask parents to assist us by reminding your child to charge them over the break and have them ready to use them at school in January.
Please feel free to contact me at 830-709-5105, if you have additional questions.
Thank you,
Loretta Zavala, Lytle High School Principal

1-23-2020 2020 Powerlifting!
The 2020 High School Powerlifting season began the first weekend of the new year on January 4th, 2020. While most students around the great state of Texas were lazing around, sleeping in, eating too much and watching bowl games on television, your powerlifters were getting up early, coming in to stretch, get cardio work in and lift. On Saturday morning, they boarded the bus at 05:10am and headed out to get their 2020 competition year started. To date, they have successfully competed in two meets, Natalia and SW Legacy. Our lifters will wake up early, once again, this coming Saturday to load up and to pit their wits and ability against their competitors at Randolph Field High School where family and friends may come to show their support for our young student-athletes. Bars loaded at 9am & competition begins!

This past Friday, Januray 17th, the boys opened up District play for the 2019-2020 season vs the Cotulla Cowboys. Although 20 games into the season plagued by injuries, this would be the first game where every player was available to play and man did it show. The Pirates played fast and pressed all night long. The pressure defense was led by Senior Jaron Calderon with 6 steals and 5 deflections on ball with Junior Mark Cantu having 5 steals and 8 deflections of his own. The Pirates fast tempo offense was led by Senior Captain John Martinez who finished with 20 points and 12 rebounds with the help from Mr. 1000 himself, Robert Ibarra adding 14 points, 4 steals, and 4 rebounds for a complete game. The Pirates won 76-53 over the Cowboys.

1-21-2020 Girls Varsity Basketball Beats Cotulla
The girls bounced back Friday, January 17th, and picked up a good win on the road at Cotulla by the score of 38-36. It was intense the last 30 seconds when the buzzard went off, I looked at Coach Mason and said I’m sweating like I played in the game. Free throws are just not working for us this year, we were 8/24 from the line we told the girls if we would of just made half of them we would of won big. Leading the way was Autumn Frias with 15 points and she made a clutch free throw in the final minutes. Go Pirates!!!!
