We do something called CTE Exloratory for grade 9 students, in which they spend a week in each of our 15 CTE programs. By second semester, they can choose their top 3 CTE picks or simply go Academic.

Exploratory sounds like a no brainer. However… getting our scheduling dept to buy in is like (insert cute idiom) ain’t gonna happen.

Interesting. Can you provide more info? We just have "open houses" and individual schools will bring 9th graders in for a short tour and course demos.
