About Career and Technical Education (CTE)

CTE students receive education that combines academic content with hands-on learning. Over the course of three years, starting in 10th grade, students receive 1,080 hours of specific instruction, using state-of-the-art equipment, and under the watchful eye of experienced industry professionals trained to teach our students in the classroom.

  • We offer CTE programs in 43 occupational areas, often leading to industry-recognized credentials or certifications in addition to the student’s high school diploma.
  • CTE courses offer our students the ability to get specific, practical and professional skills
  • That can mean the difference on a college application or the fast-track into a first job!
