Welcome To Career Center Campus
We would like to welcome you and your student to the Career Center Campus for the 2024-2025 school year! We look forward to meeting you and getting to know your student in the coming weeks. Whether your student is here for one of our seven Career and Technical Education Programs (Construction Technology, Compact Engines, Horticulture, Culinary Arts, Early Childcare, Companion Animal Care, Health Science) Valley or InSTEPS-our goal remains the same: Engage, Equip, Empower each and every student, each and everyday.
Did you know...? Why Daily Attendance Matters:
Missed Lessons = Falling Behind: Even one day can mean missing critical instructions and activities, making it harder for your child to catch up.
Impact on Future Success: Consistent attendance is a strong predictor of academic achievement and future opportunities.
Building Resilience: Regular attendance teaches your child the value of perseverance and responsibility—essential skills for success in life.
Stronger Friendships: Daily presence helps your child develop and sustain friendships, which are crucial for emotional and social development.
Healthy Routine: Attending school every day establishes a stable routine, promoting better mental and physical health.
Who to contact if your student will be absent: Laura Jueschke- Attendance/Registrar Secretary
