"Eight out of ten jobs in America do not require a college degree, but most do require training."
 
 

New Horizons High School provides a whole world of hands on learning experiences for students .

CTE classes introduce students to computers, marketing, jewelry making, photography, applied mathematics and communications, to name a few.

All of the skills gained in these classes transfer directly to the workforce, enhance a job resume and  are designed to build confidence and leadership skills.

Some CTE classes are Tech Prep classes and students can earn college credits for  those classes, giving them a head start in further training.
