According to California Education Code, every school district that offers CTE programs must also have a board appointed district CTE Advisory Committee that is made up of students, parents, CTE teachers, counselors, administrators, and industry partners. The purpose of this committee is to:
Advise on the types of CTE programs offered to SCCS students (e.g., CTE pathways, courses, work based learning experiences, etc.) aligned with regional workforce data.
Evaluate the effectiveness of the SCCS CTE program. This committee will develop guidelines and use data to determine effectiveness and impact of SCCS CTE programs.
Study and make recommendations to help solve CTE related problems presented to the district/program by the school board on which further information is needed.
All meetings are in person from 5:00 - 6:30pm @ the Santa Cruz County Office of Education Building, 400 Encinal St., Santa Cruz
