What does CTE do?
We equip our local and regional industries with prepared workers who have well-rounded academic, technical, and professional skills. We prepare the workforce to change the world!
How?
We provide students in RUSD with meaningful opportunities to explore, engage with, and experience the world of work, careers, and lifelong learning. We create dynamic classrooms, deliver rigorous curriculum, and facilitate collaboration, which invites students to solve problems, think creatively, and lead by example.
