Marilyn Henselman CTE SPOTLIGHT Director of Career and Technical Education Programs CAREER AND TECHNICAL EDUCATION September 2019

WELCOME BACK TO THE 2019-2020 SCHOOL YEAR! If you are receiving the CTE Spotlight for the first time, welcome to Bellevue School District!

WHAT IS CAREER AND TECHNICAL EDUCATION? Career and Technical Education is elective courses in twelve different career pathways with specific classes in each career cluster. We have career pathways in Agriculture, Audio/Visual Communication, Business/Management, Marketing, Hospitality, Human Services, Information Technology, STEM, Automotive, Construction, Welding, and Health Careers. To see the many courses and career pathways, visit the Bellevue School District web site under https://bsd405.org/programs/cte/cte-courses/. Please take a moment and read the valuable information in this publication. The CTE (Career and Technical Education) office sends out information each month highlighting the different CTE programs and events that are occurring.

You may be asking, “What is a Program of Study?” A Program of Study is a set of courses in a career cluster that leads to a college/career track. The Program of Study shows what classes a student could take to lead to a college program from grades 6-12. For example, let’s look at Computer Science:

The top section refers to the different career pathways within this cluster. It suggests different classes that would prepare a student for that pathway.

The middle section is the core classes students should be taking to adhere to the graduation requirements, but also incorporates the elective courses and the college credits available if a student follows that strand.

The bottom section of the document shows the college course name and number that the class articulates to, how many credits are available, and what certifications are available through the classes in this pathway. The last two boxes to the right identify colleges and technical colleges that offer the program, and the types of professions available under that career pathway.

As you look through the web site you will find each career pathway has a Program of Study to look over which summarizes courses, college credit, certifications, and college programs. The entire booklet with all this information is available here: https://bsd405.org/programs/cte/cte-courses/ Click on Download Career Pathways Catalog, and take a look at the many opportunities available to your son or daughter!

All CTE classes provide a rigorous academic curriculum. Therefore, many of our CTE courses provide college credit and certifications. For example, our Health Careers Program provides students the ability to earn their Certified Nursing Assistant Certification (CNA) while in high school. Our CISCO program provides certifications in CCNA and CCNP; and many of our Digital/Media Technology courses provide various Adobe Certifications, to only name a few. Between the college credits and certifications, a student’s resumes can become very impressive particularly when seeking work after high school or who plan on attending a post-secondary program of their choice!

Last year our CTE students passed 1,110 Industry Certifications in Microsoft (Core, Expert, etc.) Nursing (CNA), Red Cross First Aid/CPR, Washington Food Handlers, Precision Exams, Adobe (various), and Automotive ASE certifications. Congratulations goes to those students and teachers for their hard work!

All CTE courses also provide outside leadership opportunities while enrolled. Leadership may be clubs and activities directly at the school or may involve nationally recognized clubs such as DECA (Distributive Education Club or America), ProStart – Culinary, SkillsUSA, HOSA (Future Health Professionals, formally Health Occupations Students of America), which compete at the area, state, regional and international level. Last year we had many students compete at the International level and others have won scholarship money for college/post-secondary education.

CTE also provides Skill Center and WANIC programs. Skill Centers are three-hour courses and WANIC programs are two- hour courses. Skill Centers and WANIC programs are part of a large consortium where neighboring district students come to programs that go beyond a standard classroom. All Bellevue School District students can travel and take advantage of these programs not only in our district, but programs offered in other districts! These programs provide students with state-of-the-art equipment and materials to be ready for entry level work or the skills and knowledge to be successful in college. Our consortium includes Issaquah, Lake Washington, Northshore, Riverview, Everett, and Snoqualmie Valley School Districts. Bellevue is proud to house many programs in our own buildings such as: • Newport High – Culinary, Media, Teaching Academy, and CISCO • Bellevue – Automotive and Radio/TV Broadcasting • Sammamish – Nursing and Production Graphics • Interlake – Welding, Construction, and a Horticulture

For more information regarding the many programs available to your son or daughter throughout the WANIC consortium, go to the WANIC Skill Center web site to see what programs are available. Registration for these programs occur during the regular school registration period (January-March).

If you have questions, please do not hesitate to contact our office or the WANIC Skill Center.

COLLEGE AND CAREER ADVISORS Each high school has a College and Career Advisor to help with college and career planning. Each center will provide workshops, college and career speakers, field trips, plus much more. All information regarding these topics will be displayed through the individual school’s web site and in the daily bulletin. The College and Career Advisor for your high school is:

PACIFIC NORTHWEST COLLEGE CREDIT -- WHAT IS IT? Pacific NW College Credit is simply college credit through a consortium (Pacific NW College). The colleges that are part of our consortium and serve Bellevue School District students are Bellevue College, Cascadia, North Seattle, Shoreline, Clark, Lake Washington Institute of Technology, and Edmonds College. These colleges review our curriculum and our state approved frameworks. Once approved by the college program, they issue college credit at a reduced cost. This year the cost is $50.00 for an entire year of classes, as many as you can take! If you are on “Free and Reduced Lunch”, your tuition is waived, just notify your teacher or a College and Career Advisor. Students can earn college credit while taking classes at their high school but maintain a “B” or better grade to qualify. Here is what the list will provide you below:

• High School Course Title will be the class the student is currently enrolled in at their high school. • College Providing Credit is the college issuing the credit, you will have to select one if there are multiple colleges providing credit. You cannot earn credit for the same class at multiple locations. • College Course Title is the college course that our class has been articulated to. • Credits Available is the number of credits earned after completing the course with a “B” or better.

As of August 2019, we have the following articulations. Registration for courses will begin in December, so plan on hearing more information over the next several months on how to register and make payments.
