 Also at last week’s school board meeting, the members heard a presentation on the high school level Vocational Education Programs offered in the district. There is currently a total of 1684 Career Technical Seats filled with the school district, which includes students from Amador, Argonaut, North Star, and Independence. There are currently five distinct Course outlines offered, including Agricultural Careers, Finance and Business, Food Service and Hospitality, Consumer Education, Legal and Government Service, and Health and Medical Technology. The selection of career technical courses are based on student surveys, a community needs assessment, and a regional industry assessment. Assistant Superintendent Elizabeth Chapin-Pinotti stated that the high school teachers in the district “are second to none” when it came to workability and classroom offerings and that they worked hard to design clear pathways in order for the programs to work.
