  • Serving Career and Technical Education Students in Pennsylvania
    Career and Technical Student Organizations Serving Career and Technical Education Students in Pennsylvania 1 Dear CTSO Leaders, As the leader of a statewide trade association dedicated to the growth and development of the technology industry in Pennsylvania, I am keenly aware of the need for a highly-skilled, well-trained, and motivated workforce. At the Technology Council of Pennsylvania, we are strong advocates for advancements in and the promotion of S.T.E.M. education, as well as career and technical training, in order to prepare our young people to succeed in the 21st Century, global economy. That is why we support the work of Pennsylvania’s Career and Technical Student Organizations (CTSOs) and the critical role they play in today’s education community. For nearly 70 years, CTSOs have been able to extend teaching and learning through a variety of targeted programs, public-private partnerships and leadership development initiatives that produce technically advanced, employable students to meet the needs of this country’s diverse employer base. Today, the work of CTSOs has never been more valuable as our economy demands workers with a strong understanding of science, technology, engineering and math concepts as well as hands-on technical expertise. The co-curricular approach of CTSOs uniquely positions these organizations to enhance student skill sets and better prepare them to excel in their chosen careers. In order for Pennsylvania and the United States to not only compete, but succeed on a global stage, we need to ensure that the very technology and innovation companies that are driving this global economy have the availability of a well-qualified workforce.

  • Palmerton Area Senior High School Student Handbook 2019 – 2020
    PALMERTON AREA SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT HANDBOOK 2019 – 2020 This agenda belongs to: Name:_____________________________ 1 PAHS Student Handbook – August 2019 Dear Students and Parents / Guardians, Welcome to our school community. The entire Senior High School staff has been very busy preparing for a school year filled with exciting and positive events. Pens, paper, and textbooks are not the only things that students need to bring to school. A positive attitude and a willingness to work are essential. Learning is as much a student’s responsibility as it is ours. We want to continue to establish an atmosphere of mutual support to allow our students to take advantage of all of the opportunities that Palmerton Area High School has to offer. This handbook has been prepared to serve as a reference guide for you. A number of changes were made again to this document to better reflect our mission at the Palmerton Area High School. The items in this handbook attempt to reflect school board policies as we have interpreted them. Please familiarize yourself with the student rights and responsibilities described here. We also encourage parents and students to actively discuss these regulations and policies. Again, please note that this handbook is meant to be a general guide. If you have any specific questions or concerns, please contact me. I certainly would appreciate your comments or suggestions concerning this handbook. Your child will receive a copy of this document during the first few days of school. We will also spend some time reviewing things with the students. The signed statement should be returned to the Block 1 teacher on the Monday following the opening week of school.
