Secondary & Career-Technical Programs

The office of Secondary Programs & Career-Technical Education serves and supports teachers and students in grades 9 through 12 at Chatham Central, Jordan-Matthews, Northwood, and SAGE. Career-Technical Education (CTE) also serves and supports teachers and students in grades 6 through 8 Business and Computer courses.  CTE in our district is highlighted by multiple state and national award-winning programs across a range of areas, including Business and Marketing, Food and Nutrition, Agriculture, and Health Occupations.  In addition, each of our traditional high schools is a certified AVID site.  AVID, an acronym for Advancement Via Individual Determination, is a nationally recognized program with the mission to close the achievement gap by preparing all students for college readiness and success in a global society.  Visit www.avid.org for additional information about this program.
