College and career readiness is multi-faceted these days. Pairing robust academics with technical skills is what gives students a competitive advantage in the post-secondary and industry environment. Taking advantage of SUSD's specialized high school CTE programs to learn a skill today could mean job placement tomorrow. Having a job while in college or in a training program after high school will mean less debt - maybe zero debt - to move forward in an apprenticeship or industry-sponsored educational program. Large employers are willing to train young individuals who need to start earning a livable wage right now. Come hear about what Arizona industries are considered high-demand and high-wage and how to prepare now for future success.
