Are you interested in our next generation of workers in the Washington DC metropolitan area? Do you have ideas on how to improve career and technical education in ºìÐÓÖ±²¥app Public Schools (ºìÐÓÖ±²¥app)? Can you spend a couple of hours a month with like-minded people from business, academia, and the community to add your voice? Today it is not just reading, writing, math and science; students must be ready for a changing workforce whatever their career aspirations might be. They might be looking at careers in hospitality, technology, engineering, the medical field, or new fields such as cybersecurity or data science. Even fields we do not have today!! Bring your experience and expertise to the Career, Technical, and Adult Education (CTAE) Committee, Advisory Council on Instruction, ºìÐÓÖ±²¥app Public Schools (ºìÐÓÖ±²¥app).

  • Creating business connections within the ºìÐÓÖ±²¥app and regional community to enable students to have beneficial work experiences, internships, and apprenticeships;
  • Examining career pathways for students of all academic abilities, including those with special challenges;
  • Exploring educational offerings in ºìÐÓÖ±²¥app, particularly at the Career Center, soon to house ºìÐÓÖ±²¥app Tech., to ensure all students are highly employable whether they elect to go on to 4-year universities, community college, or enter a trade;
  • Identifying professional development requirements for ºìÐÓÖ±²¥app teachers such as their recent engagement in project-based learning techniques;
  • Reviewing nationwide K-12 initiatives such as dual enrollment and how these might apply to ºìÐÓÖ±²¥app and our implementation strategy;
  • Funding priorities including allocations under the annual Federal Perkins Act, finding and pursuing grant opportunities, and funding requests to the School Board, through the ACI process;
  • Updating and creating new educational policies, such as recent advances in obtaining quality points for all dual enrollment classes; and
