Lobo Elective Classes

At The Bella Romero Academy of Applied Technology our vision is that every student will graduate high school as a minimum.  To see this vision become a reality we offer innovative classes during middle school students' "Lobo" Block. Please see below for a brief description of some of the exciting elective classes we offer to our middle school students.
