What are CTE Pathways?

CTE Pathways are exactly that.  The pathway is a “road map” that shows classes that students take to help them achieve their academic and personal goals for their future.

Why complete a CTE Pathway?

• Enhance your college/employment applications.
• Becoming a pathway completer has a direct connection between doing well in high school, and post-secondary achievements whether that is going directly into your career and/or getting some additional higher education degrees. 
• Students who focus on a Career Pathway acquire the skills necessary for entry into well-paid careers with high potential for rapid financial growth, increased levels of responsibility, and a high degree of personal satisfaction.
• Earn a cord to wear at graduation.
• Potential to become industry certified.
