CTE Delivers Real Options for Students for College and Rewarding Careers
- CTE programs allow students to explore a range of options for their future-inside and outside the classroom.
- Through CTE, students can start their path toward a career that they are passionate about, while earning valuable experience, college credits and more.
- CTE students are more likely to have a post-high school plan, including college-than other students; just two percent of CTE students say they “don’t know” what they will do after high school.
