CTE courses are one semester long and are filled on a first-come, first-serve basis. Only students who complete all components of registration, including assessment testing, will be added to the course. Attendance and seat time is required and crucial to completing the course. Students who miss more than 2 days of class will not be able to meet the minimum requirements and will therefore be dropped.
NOTE: All students MUST take our assessment test. This is a basic reading and math test, and is NOT a pass or fail test. This test is mandatory and we cannot assign you to a class until this test has been taken. When you receive an email from us regarding your registration, that email will include a link to sign up for one of our testing sessions. Please read the email thoroughly and follow the instructions in the email.
