Career & Technical Education (CTE)
At A+ Charter Schools, we believe in preparing our students for success beyond the classroom. Our Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs are designed to equip students with practical skills, knowledge, and hands-on experience that can lead to meaningful careers and further educational opportunities.

CTE programs provide students with the opportunity to explore and develop skills in various high-demand fields such as healthcare, technology, business, engineering, and the arts. Whether students are looking to enter the workforce immediately after high school or pursue further education and certifications, CTE programs help bridge the gap between learning and earning.
