CTE Programs
PROGRAM ENDORSEMENTS
Career & Technical Education (CTE) helps students connect their learning to real-world careers, giving them opportunities to pursue educational programs that suit their academic and career aspirations. It prepares students for college, training, or high-demand jobs while building skills that are universally valuable.
A first-year student who is a resident of East Greenwich and is enrolled at East Greenwich High School has the opportunity to pursue a Program Endorsement. Out-of-district students who are interested in enrolling in a Program at EGHS must formally apply through the Career and Technical Education (CTE) application process and may be eligible for state-provided transportation.
A Program designation will appear on the student’s transcript and diploma and demonstrates to colleges and employers a depth of study and experience in one specific area. CTE students can earn industry-approved credentials and college credit through AP classes and/or concurrent enrollment. To earn a Program Endorsement, students must successfully complete three components:
-
Academic study that includes the successful completion of three (3) independent, increasingly challenging and connected courses;
-
Work-based learning hours that provide students with real-world experience in their chosen CTE Program area; and a
-
Culminating capstone project that will fulfill the performance graduation requirement (e.g., senior project, exhibition, or portfolio).
