Connecting Education to Careers

Career and Technical Education (CTE) provides all students with access to high-quality, rigorous, career-focused programs that deliver credentials with real labor market value. By focusing on a specific pathway, students acquire the precise skills needed to enter well-paid industries that offer rapid financial growth, increased responsibility, and high personal satisfaction. Ultimately, the vision of JSD CTE is for every student to maximize their high school experience by earning college credit, saving both time and money as they fast-track their way toward an industry license or an Associate degree.

Why CTE? The Bottom Line: CTE classes don't teach you what to think; they teach you how to do.
