CTE in OSD

Happy Monday CTE Friends - As you begin the work on your Annual Program evaluation and preparation, you may wish to review the documents you created last year at this same time as a guide to evaluation and planning forward. We placed the documents you sent us during your 22-23 Program Planning and Evaluation Cycle into your Shared Google Drive folders.  If you have misplaced the link to that folder, please reach out to Chelsea and she can resend you the link to your folder. Please note, even if you evaluate your program on your four-year plan as we have done historically, OSPI requires that we use their provided template for Program evaluation.  You can find links to that document on the Teacher Timeline .

 Hello Friends of CTE - OSD is honored to have such amazing students in all areas of CTE!!  Thanks in large part to our amazing and skilled CTE teaching staff.   I would like to invite everyone to join me in celebrating DECA in OSD.   Olympia High School has 12 students who have qualified to compete at DECA Nationals in April Capital High School has 3 students qualified to compete at DECA Nationals in April.  We are so proud of those DECA students and our OSD Staff members who supported and mentored these young people!

If you intend to use CTE funds, send me an email or schedule an appointment, and we will make a plan including transportation, chaperones, etc. Chaperones should be recruited in the following order: Parents In Building Non-Instructional Staff CTE Office Staff In Building Instructional Staff If you have prior approval the process will move much smoother...
