Mission: Equal Access To and Promotion of Education Excellence

Career Technical Education (CTE) provides students with the academic and technical skills, knowledge and training necessary to succeed in future careers and to become lifelong learners. In total, about 12.5 million high school and college students are enrolled in CTE across the nation. CTE prepares these learners for the world of work by introducing them to workplace competencies, and makes academic content accessible to students by providing it in a hands-on context. The national high school graduation rate for CTE concentrators is 93%, and in Claiborne County Schools it is 97%– about 16 percentage points higher than the national average graduation rate.

Non-Discrimination Policy
The Claiborne County School System does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, disability, or age in its educational programs, activities or employment policies and provides equal access to the Boy Scouts and other designated youth groups. The Claiborne County School System offers classes in many career and technical education program areas under its open admissions policy. Specifically, the Claiborne County School System offers admissions based on selective criteria in (ie, Agriculture, Health Science, Criminal Justice, etc.) through a separate application process that is nondiscriminatory. For more information about the application process and particular course offerings, contact the CTE Supervisor at (423) 626-3543.  Lack of English language proficiency will not be a barrier to admission and participation in career and technical education programs.  Inquiries regarding the nondiscrimination compliance should be directed to the 504/Title IX Coordinator; Claiborne County Board of Education, 1403 Tazewell Road, Tazewell, TN 37879, (423)626-7979.
