Bristol-Plymouth Regional Technical School - Carpentry Courses Bristol

Bristol-Plymouth Regional Technical School is a vocational high school located in East Taunton, Massachusetts, United States, that has been in operation since September 1972. Bristol-Plymouth is one of the three high schools in the city of Taunton, and enrolls roughly 1,200 students in grades 9 through 12. The school draws students from the towns and cities of Bridgewater, Raynham, Berkley, Taunton, Rehoboth, Middleboro, and Dighton. Because it is considered to be its own school district, it has an on-site superintendent as well as a principal and vice principal.

The school colors are dark blue, light blue and silver. The athletic teams are known as the Craftsmen and the mascot is called "Crafty".

In 2017 the Bristol-Plymouth Football team came in first place in the Mayflower Athletic Conference.

In addition, many off-site shops operate within the community to provide additional services with "real-world" applications.

The school operates on an "A" and "B" week schedule; 9th and 11th graders are in the shop when the 10th and 12th graders are in academic classrooms, and vice versa.

In their senior year, students have the opportunity to participate in a program known as CO-OP. Instead of attending traditional classes during the week of technical instruction, CO-OP students are allowed to do real jobs in the community that are related to their particular field of study.
