On the Del Valle High School campus, students are working towards their futures, so it’s only appropriate that they study in a building that looks futuristic. The new Career and Technical Education Center (CTEC) on the Texas campus includes a health-science lab, mock courtroom, automotive repair and welding facilities and offers students the option to earn 23 industry-recognized certifications. Pfluger Architects specified metal panels on the exterior of the building that would deliver the desired appearance for the educational building long into the future.
