What is Career and Technical Education (CTE)?
Career and Technical Education (CTE) prepares students for the world of work. While in grades 5-8, students are provided career awareness and career exploration opportunities. These opportunities include academic, technical and professional skills experiences.

As the Middle School Career Development Coordinator, I support students in grades 5 through 8 with career awareness and exploration by sparking their interests and encouraging them to pursue their dreams. Student opportunities include career and college readiness resources, career preparation activities, guest presentations and career events. Partnerships with community members, businesses, educators, counselors and parents are significant to the success of these programs.
