CTE Career Pathways provide all students with a road map to discover and prepare for specific careers. Each
pathway allows students to explore specialized interests and passions through customized programs of study.

Career Pathways help students make smarter choices about their decisions after graduation. Students can randomly
explore within different pathways or focus on a specific program of study. Either way, students have the opportunity
to discover a future career goal and begin learning the knowledge and skills needed for success.
