CTE Pathways offered at Tustin High School

February is Career Technical Education (CTE) Month!

In celebration of CTE Month, each week we will be highlighting one of our secondary schools’ CTE pathway offerings. CTE is a program of study that involves a multiyear sequence of courses that integrates core academic knowledge with technical and occupational knowledge to provide students with an informed pathway to postsecondary education and careers. TUSD is proud to offer hands-on, career-ready pathways that prepare students for high-skill, high-wage jobs of the future. CTE pathways include working on industry-standard equipment and software, hands-on real-world skill development, industry certifications, and internship opportunities.


At Tustin High School, students can complete pathways in Biomedical, Digital Film and Video Production, Engineering, Graphic Design, Music Technology and Visual Imagery. More information is available on Tustin High School's CTE pathways on our site. And, for information on all of our CTE pathway programs, please visit the TUSD CTE webpage.
