THE CRANFORD HIGH SCHOOL CTE Academy Programs
Participating in one of the many Cranford High School CTE-Academy Programs can help students navigate their way to success in college and career placements. In total, there are 16 Career Clusters in the National Career Clusters Framework, representing more than 79 Career Pathways and are supported by the NJ Department of Education (NJDOE). Cranford High School has modeled 13 CTE-Academy Programs based on the NJDOE guidance that will transform our current offerings and expand to new opportunities. Each year in January we will ask incoming 9th grade students that would like to apply to participate in an Academy program to fill out a brief application. See the attached slideshow for more information.
