A MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTORS:
As we enter February requests for CTE programs are rolling in. February celebrates CTE Month nationally! Every February, the CTE community celebrates CTE Month® to raise awareness of the role that CTE has in readying learners for college and career success. CTE Month is also a time to recognize and celebrate the achievements and accomplishments of our CTE partners at the local, state and national level. CTE Month is supported by a variety of CTE groups and organized by the Association for Career and Technical Education (ACTE).
High Schools are currently registering students for classes next year. As a part of this process rising Junior and Seniors interested in attending classes at the Legacy Campus should be meeting with their high school counselor to complete the CTE request form attached below. The CTE request form closes February 10th after which time students will receive a pathway-specific application due March 10th, 2023.
We are very excited to see a number of requests to attend Legacy Campus next year.

Each Pathway has it's own specific courses, pre-requisites, and opportunities, so read the course descriptions for information about commitments, fees, and college credits. Each pathway has a suggested sequence of learning and a graphic illustrating the flow of learning. More courses will be established as pathways develop.
