Welcome to Elgin Independent School District!

Career and technical education programs offer a sequence of courses that provides students with coherent and rigorous content. CTE content is aligned with challenging academic standards and relevant technical knowledge and skills needed to prepare for further education and careers in current or emerging professions.

Exploring Your Career Options: 

If students are considering going straight into the workforce or into a technical training program after graduation, they will still need to complete their high school education and earn a diploma. Participation in CTE programs increases wages, probability, and consistency of employment. Experience gained through Career and Technical Education programs also prepares students for the workforce and can lead to better job opportunities.
