Career and Technical Education Options

Career and Technical Education within WCSD:
CTE Programs of Study in WCSD
Important Update: Transition from “Signature Academies” to “CTE for All”
Beginning with the 2025–26 school year, Washoe County School District will sunset the Signature Academy model and transition to a “CTE for All” approach. This shift will make more high-quality Career & Technical Education (CTE) programs accessible to all students across our traditional high schools, without the need for a Signature designation and application.
