During the February 2025 School Board Meeting, the Alma School Board highlighted the impressive efforts of its Career and Technical Education (CTE) staff in engaging students. Board members praised the CTE programs for their ability to attract and retain student interest, emphasizing that such success is not accidental.
One board member noted, “There’s lots of school districts that have programs that kids don’t wanna be in, but our staff does such a great job at getting kids in there and keeping kids interested.” This recognition underscores the importance of effective programming in fostering student participation and enthusiasm in vocational education.
The board's acknowledgment of the CTE staff's dedication reflects a broader commitment to enhancing educational opportunities for students, ensuring they are not only enrolled but also actively engaged in their learning experiences. As the district continues to prioritize these programs, the positive impact on student outcomes is expected to grow.
