21st Century Workforce Development Indicators
CSISD will...provide an array of services, programs and opportunities to meet the needs of each student, and provide the opportunity for each student to reach his or her full potential.
Background: CSISD believes that it is vitally important to prepare students for the workforce, whether our graduates plan to go straight to work or to college. These workforce skills give our graduates the ability to earn money even while pursuing other education opportunities. Our career and technology education department offers numerous career training options in all five endorsement areas of House Bill 5. Many of these career pathways culminate in the opportunity for a certification that can lead directly to gainful employment after high school.
