Help Us Build the Future of Skilled Trades at Portage High School!

Portage High School is launching the ACE Academy (Architecture, Construction, and Engineering)—a hands-on learning hub designed to prepare students for real-world careers in the skilled trades. With a vision backed by teachers, industry leaders, and community partners, we’re working to raise $2.1 million to create state-of-the-art spaces and provide cutting-edge equipment that mirrors today’s workforce demands. To date, we have already secured over $1.4 million in grants and donations, demonstrating the strong community belief in this vision. Every dollar brings us closer to transforming lives, strengthening our local economy, and empowering students to stay and thrive in the communities that have supported them. Your donation—big or small—helps us build something lasting. Join us in laying the foundation for tomorrow’s builders, engineers, and innovators.

You may donate online or contact Portage High School directly to arrange a private or in-person contribution. Visit us online for more information.
