Students in Ohio who take career-tech courses are more engaged, likely to graduate and have better college graduation rates than non-CTE peers! Massillon Jr High started bringing Career Tech classes and pathways to their students almost 7 years ago. Learn how it got started and how it's grown, along with how you can make it work in your building. ODE will provide an overview of the Middle Grades CTE Toolkit so that schools can begin to plan for the staffing, course options and pathway alignment to start offering CTE as soon as the 2024-2025 school year.
