Greetings and welcome to Principles of Architecture and Architectural Design 1 & 2, where our Architecture students design a future beyond what they can imagine.

Have you ever thought about the structures around you? An architect played a role in determining aspects of the structure, such as how tall it would be and where the walls and doorways would be located. Architects drew up plans that guided teams of people as they went about constructing the building, which included: plumbers, electricians, masons, roofers, and framers. If you like to design and build things, or are interested in project management, then the Architecture Career Path may be the right career choice for you.

Ridge Point High School offers the full Architectural Design Pathway Course Sequence:

I received my Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from Hawaii Pacific University while serving over fourteen years in the U.S. Navy as a Chief Petty Officer serving aboard three Fast-Attack Submarines.  The 2022-2023 school year marks my tenth year as an educator and ninth year here at FBISD.  I am the Head Aquatics Coach for Swimming and UIL's newest sport: Water Polo!  I am blessed with this opportunity to engage students with a unique hands-on industrial learning experience and to teach our students about all the various career pathways Architecture has to offer!
