SDHS Work Based Learning




"The mission of Career & Technical Education in Davidson County Schools
is to empower all students to be successful citizens, workers and leaders
in a global economy."
Students in CTE classes have the opportunity to participate in a wide range of activities. CTE prepares students to be LIFELONG LEARNERS. Students choose pathways that align with their personal CAREER DEVELOPMENT PLANS. After completing a pathway, students have the opportunity to gain real world application knowledge by becoming a student INTERN at a participating company. Students may also participate in JOB SHADOWS and explore potential career pathways. We offer student CTE ACADEMIES where students may earn a cord to wear at graduation. Students may also attain community college credit for CTE courses through our ARTICULATED CLASSES.
If you own a business and would like to become an internship partner with SDMHS, please contact me. We would love to hear from you!
