Planning for high school is an exciting time in students’ lives. In Olathe, our vision statement is “Their Future is Our Future” and this includes an individualized approach and student choice as we ensure our students are college and career ready. Students can choose to be a part of the comprehensive high school, including a variety of Career and Technical Education (CTE) pathways. They may apply to a CTE pathway program at the Olathe Advanced Technical Center during their junior and senior years. Or, they may apply to one of our 15 four-year specialized 21st Century Academies. All of these options focus on today’s high-demand career fields and help prepare students for the world of work by combining student interest with student learning through hands-on experiences, industry standard resources, and real-world partnerships fusing academic and technical skills, knowledge and training necessary for future careers.
