Career-Technical Education (CTE) prepares students for high-skill, high-wage, high-demand jobs where you can be creative, innovative, and self-directed after high school. South’s programs focus on student collaboration, real-world relevance, and leadership development opportunities. CTE sets students up for success in all levels of post-secondary education and entry-level employment, start-up entrepreneurship, and community leadership.
SEHS CTE Programs of Study
Early Childhood Education
Culinary Arts
Computer and Information Sciences
Graphic Design
Journalism & Media Arts
While anyone may take these courses, we encourage all students to consider completing the 3-credit pathway (see right). Some CTE programs offer College Now credit, and pathways are connected to the senior-year CTE project, which can fulfill the Extended Application requirements for graduation.
Center for Applied Learning & Community Impact “CALCI” CTE Pathways
CALCI “Hub” Programs are district-wide Career-Technical programs that allow students to do a deep dive into a career pathway while earning high school credits and fulfill the Extended Application requirements to graduate. These programs have no prerequisites to enter, have integrated credit, and are project-based and hands-on. Attendance is essential in these programs, so be aware that chronic absences or tardies may result in your removal from the program.
CALCI Programs:
Creative Current Studio
Future Build
EmpowerED
HumaniTech
How CALCI programs differ from South-specific CTE programs:
11th and 12th Graders only (South programs can start as early as 9th grade)
Double periods each day, either in the mornings or afternoons, except Future Build which is the entire A Day or B Day (South typically has a single class period per term of the program).
Completed in a single year (South programs take 2-3 years to complete)
Integrated Credits offered in more than one graduation credit type (South programs are often a single credit type, Applied Arts: CTE)
District Provided Transportation as students go to different sites (South CTE programs happen only at South. HumaniTech is an exception since it is housed at South.)
