Career and Technical Education (CTE)

Career and Technical Education classes prepare students for a wide range of high-wage, high-demand careers. CTE is an essential part of the school division's total educational program specifically designed to prepare students for post-secondary education and/or employment. These courses enhance student success by reinforcing the Standards of Learning established for English, mathematics, science, history, and social science.

CTE programs help students develop 21st century workforce readiness skills while guiding their career pathway by entering an advanced training program.

Courses that have a maximum enrollment due to state regulations will require students to complete an application process. The rubric used for student acceptance will include attendance, grades, behavior, and career goals. An interview may be required for some courses to determine student interest. Shuttle buses are provided for students to travel between high schools. A travel period may be required for off-site courses.
