La Quinta High School's academies and pathways make up our Career Technical Education (CTE) Programs. CTE is an educational strategy that combines academics, work-based learning, and integrated student supports to prepare students for entry into college and careers. Students who participate in CTE programs report greater confidence in their life and career skills. You will find a wide range of variety within our program selection. Programs vary from a three-year or four-year commitment—allowing our students to dive deeply into their career interests.
