Career and Technical Academies (CTA)

A Career & Technical Academy (CTA) is a type of Magnet School. A CTA is only open to high school students. Entry into a CTA program can be criteria and/or interest-based. CTAs are whole school magnet programs available for students going into 9th or 10th grade.

Enrollment

Parents of interested students must submit an application by the deadline. Students must meet the minimum qualifications in order to be considered. All qualified applicants are placed in a random computerized lottery. Families have the option to apply to any CTA, but they should check with the school to find out if they are eligible for transportation.

Transportation

Each CTA has a specific transportation zone. Transportation is provided to students who live within the transportation zone for the CTA. It is recommended that parents or guardians confirm transportation eligibility with the school.

Athletics

Most CTAs in CCSD do not offer on-campus sports. Student-athletes in CTAs must travel to their assigned district school to participate in sports. Southeast Career Technical Academy, Las Vegas (SETECH), is the only CTA in CCSD that offers sports.
