ACOVA HIGHLIGHTS
Marsha Becker
CTE Coordinator at Lake Havasu Unified School District.
August Administrator Highlight
For the month of August, ACOVA is happy to highlight Mrs. Marsha Becker, CTE Coordinator at Lake Havasu Unified School District.
Mrs. Becker has passionately dedicated herself to researching, studying, organizing, and developing the CTE Program at LHHS. Her innovative approach has united our community and school district, providing students with real-life career experiences.
In CTE classes, students receive targeted career and soft skills training, preparing them for high-wage, high-skill, and high-demand careers. For example, our local fire department, police department, hospital, and district offer shadowing opportunities and courses that help students understand specific careers, better preparing them for life after high school.
Mrs. Becker has also volunteered her time on the ACOVA Board for several years, working on behalf of all CTE administrators in various roles. She currently serves as the Past President for ACOVA.
Thank you, Christina Bonsang of Lake Havasu High School; for highlighting the amazing work Mrs. Becker is doing at LHHS.
