Students in the Media Arts pathway use the same high end video equipment and editing software that is used in the industry. We host our own Mustang studios where students work on various projects including our student news program, documentaries, and narrative films. Exploring the history of film students will learn about the impact of changing technology and the career opportunities available in the world of film, design, and broadcasting.

CTE Culinary Arts
Students in the Culinary Arts program take their classes in our on campus food lab and full restaurant kitchen. This is a very popular CTE pathway with 231 students this year. The pathway takes students through basic food preparation and safety instruction in the first year to serving as professional level caterers in the capstone in which they prepare and serve food at school events. This pathway is perfect for students interested in the culinary arts and hospitality industry (caterer, chef, sports nutrition, food writer, restaurant/hotel manager, baker, health inspector, food service director, food technologist, etc.) as well as for students who want to explore the realities of small business ownership.- Contact: Jodi Larson
