Career and Technical Education

Career and Technical Education (CTE) helps students get ready for life after high school—whether that means going to college, starting a career, or both.
CTE programs let students learn by doing in real-world fields like technology, graphic design, engineering, and more. Students build useful skills, earn certifications, and explore careers they might want in the future—all while still in high school.

Experiences:

Students will enter citywide and national competitions in robotics and coding (hackathons).
Ex: Siemen’s Competition in Math, Science, and Technology; The Data Open

We will host continue to host events at Gotham! Robotics competitions, scrimmages, Tech EXPOs, etc.

Requirement of 54 Work-Based Learning (WBL) Hours

Students can earn WBL hours through...

Field trips
Tech EXPOs
Attending specific assemblies and events at Gotham Tech
Shadowing experiences
Jobs held outside of school
Babysitting, mowing lawns, etc.

Students will use Career Pathway Portal to log their own hours. So many experiences will be available that students can feasibly have this requirement completed by the end of their sophomore year!

Students will need an artifact from the event for proof of hours.
