Middle School CTE
Vision
With Career Education in mind, Middle School CTE programs are exploratory in nature, focused on connection to career possibilities, and assist students to obtain connection to self, while experiencing an all-encompassing ‘wheel’ of career cluster exposure.
Mission
To introduce students to their interests, resulting in obtaining relevance for learning with an increase in their engagement which in turn supports high school program recruitment and retention, inevitably increasing graduation rates and preparedness for in-demand, high wage careers.

There is widespread agreement that high school is simply too late to begin to expose learners to the variety of high-skill, high-wage and in-demand careers available to them and the foundational skills they will need to be able to access and succeed in those careers. Yet there remains a lack of consensus — or even basic understanding — about what Career Technical Education (CTE) and career readiness more broadly should entail at the middle grades level.
