February is CTE Month!
Career & Technical Education (CTE) provides students with hands-on learning experiences that prepare them for high-wage, high-demand careers. Through CTE programs, students gain valuable technical skills, industry certifications, and real-world experience that set them up for success in both college and career pathways.
At Tonopah Valley High School, we are proud to offer seven CTE programs that connect students with industry professionals, provide internship opportunities, and develop leadership through organizations like DECA, FBLA, FCCLA, and SkillsUSA.
Join us this month in celebrating the impact of CTE on our students and community! Follow along as we highlight student achievements, share success stories, and showcase the future of our workforce.
