How does technology differ from voca­tional industrial education?

Technology is unique in that it helps students prepare for living in an industrial democracy and provides a foundation for specific occupational and educational opportunities. It offers basic educa­tion to the future technician, engineer, scientist, and for the several vocational programs. It is not confined to the learning of a specific trade or skill as emphasized in vocational industrial edu­cation, but, rather, it educates boys and girls to become versatile and adaptable to the rapidly changing world.

Career & Technical Education Program

The CTE Program better prepares students for college, allows students the opportunity to earn college credit while taking FHS courses, and guides students on their way to securing a career in the 21st Century!

Do girls take technology?

Yes, there are many girls who enroll in technology courses. It is believed that this number will increase greatly since they, too, are a part of our industrial and technical world. Today, women are playing a significant role in industry, as evidenced by the fact that they represent 47 per­cent of the current labor force.
