What is CTE?

CTE stands for Career and Technical Education.

These classes are designed to give students hands on, real world college and career preparation. Our programs are 2 - 4 years and offer students active work experiences, certifications and business and industry connections. Students not only learn the academic content and required skills for their industry, but practice professional skills such as interviewing, professional etiquette, computer skills and resume writing. Classes also focus on the building of reading, science and math skills.

Each CTE program gives students a chance to join a student organization, through which they can travel to workshops, leadership trainings and regional, state and national competitions.

All CTE programs teach Professional Standards that are designed to help students through the college and career admission process. You can see the Arizona CTE Professional Standards here.

We are offering eight fabulous CTE Programs at TVHS for the 2022/2023 school year. Click on the links below each program name to find out more!
