Parent and Counselor Resources
Hello and Welcome! This page is meant to serve as a resource for students, parents and component school counselors. We believe well informed families and school counselors are the key to ensuring students have adequate and up-to-date information so they can make the right decision for their future in Career and Technical Education.
Student tours and district presentations are scheduled throughout the year. Please make arrangements through the center. To request a catalog or copies of the Program Overview Flyer, please contact Lori Smith.
