What we offer
Weld RE-5J School District Enhances Student Futures with Hands-On CTE Programs
Weld RE-5J School District’s Career and Technical Education (CTE) Pathways provide students with hands-on, real-world experiences to prepare them for diverse futures, including college, trade school, apprenticeships, or industry certifications. These programs, from elementary through high school, blend academic knowledge with technical skills for high-demand industries. The district collaborates with educational and industry bodies to align its CTE programs with workforce needs, offer comprehensive career guidance, ensure equitable access, and employ certified instructors.
Many Options for CTE Pathways
There are 14 different CTE pathways at Roosevelt High School, while the Middle School Exploratory program at the middle school serves to support a variety of those pathways. This allows students to explore multiple CTE pathways and participate in more than one as they determine which pathway is their passion!
Middle school and the high school teachers collaborate with their shared Advisory Boards to ensure Weld RE 5J students engage in aligned, high quality CTE programs. Our students benefit from our teachers’ expertise and the support and partnerships we have with local businesses and organizations.
