On September 28, 2010, NBC’s Today show ran this segment on the value of CTE. The Executive Director of the Association for Career & Technical Education, Janet Bray, knows our industry well, as she previously worked with the Printing Industries of America.

I wrote a letter to Secretary Duncan about how Career and Technical Education is helping a diverse high school in the Chicago area get consistently ranked in the Top 5% of the nations high schools. The link to the letter is: https://docs.google.com/a/maine207.org/viewer?a=v&pid=explorer&chrome=true&srcid=0B3SNF-9-QtSMOWU2OTJlNjktNTM1ZC00NTE2LWI4MzMtYmI5MjEwODg4YTY2&hl=en_US
Thank you for sending this letter to me. An excellent argument for the benefits of CTE, and the “deliberate practice” used by CTE programs.
