Career & Technical Education (CTE) classes combine high-quality, rigorous instruction with real-life experiences to prepare students for the future. Mesquite CTE offers 35 programs of study that equip students to achieve at high levels, whether they are starting college, attending a technical school, or entering the workforce after high school graduation.
Students are also offered opportunities to earn paid and unpaid work experience, state and nationally recognized professional certifications, and college credits through dual-credit programs with Dallas College. CTE courses help prepare students for a variety of real-world careers, and the goal for our CTE program is to produce young adults who think critically and independently, communicate effectively, and work collaboratively in today’s world.
