Career and Technical Education
Vocational education provides instruction for both youth and adults to acquire the skills needed for employment or self-employment in occupations of their choice and for which there are employment opportunities. Emphasis is placed on skill development, pride in workmanship, confidence in the ability to perform useful tasks in the world of work, and the development of responsible citizenship, and a realistic self-image in relation to the individual's chosen vocation. Both in-school courses and an intensive program at Valley Vocational/Technical center offer such opportunities for students.
