I am CTE

I am CTE Whether you are a student, parent, teacher or employer, you have been impacted by CTE.

Today’s cutting-edge, rigorous and relevant career and technical education (CTE) prepares youth for a wide range of high-wage, high-skill, high-demand careers (acteonline.org). We know students in CTE programs have higher graduation rates, perform better academically and leave high school college AND career ready. CTE is a vital component to a growing economy and is the pipeline to a skilled work

force. Support CTE today by sharing your "i am CTE" story on Facebook, with your community and your state representatives.

🎓 Another step toward a successful year!

This morning, students in our CTD Central Programs worked alongside the Cochise College Early College team to complete their Cochise College applications, registration, and other enrollment requirements.

Partnerships like these help ensure students have the support they need to navigate the process and begin the school year ready to learn, earn college credit, and pursue their career goals.

A special thank you to the Cochise College Early College team for partnering with us to help students take the next step toward their future! 💜💛
