Viking Spotlight: Hoover's Rob White on Career Tech Opportunities

Hoover Associate Principal Rob White talks to NCCS Superintendent Jeff Wendorf about the Career Tech Pact, which includes GlenOak, Hoover, Jackson, and Lake High Schools. He explains how Career Tech Education (CTE) offers high school students, as well as eighth graders from North Canton Middle School, can explore paths to a successful career. Hoover offers nine outstanding CTE programs, and the four National JA Companies of the Year, Project Lead the Way recognition, Robotics team opportunities, and Video Productions/Broadcast Journalism's outstanding reputation in Ohio are just a few examples of their quality. Mr. White explains that CTE is no longer simply vocational education, as classes provide firsthand work that engages students and provides them with a chance to see which careers best suit their interests. High school registration for next year's classes is a few months away, and this podcast gives parents and students alike a chance to begin an exploration of the Career Tech programs available to our students.
