Many of our students have an interest in and aptitude for hands-on technical training and will eventually find themselves in a rewarding technical career. We need to help these students begin their acquisition of knowledge and hands-on training, and, in some cases, be ready to take a licensing exam upon high school graduation (EMT). Vocational programs position students to be making a living wage in a technical career straight out of high school or to have advanced standing in a Career Technical Education program in our local colleges. Dual enrollment helps students be ready for the next chapter after high school.
