CTE

Career and Technical Education (CTE) is a federally supported program that exposes students to a variety of careers and industries, helps them explore and develop interests, and develops foundational technical and employability skills that they can continue to build in high school.

Mrs. Lewis is celebrating her 13th year of teaching at New Bridge with the last 7 in the CTE Department. Her course schedule includes 8th Grade Engineering: Technological Systems, 7th Grade Engineering: Invention and Innovation, and 6th Grade Engineering: Exploring Technology. Each class has a hands-on lab engineering focus while students discover and use technology through application of the Engineering Design Process. A focus to learn knowledge and skills for careers in technology, engineering, and design pathways is woven throughout activities. Labs are module based and students can select from Virtual Architecture, Computer Graphics and Animation, Audio Communication, Digital Manufacturing, Forensic Science, Robotics, Structure Engineering, Home Maintenance Systems, Alternate Energy, Energy and Power, Flight Technology, and Laser Technology.

Mr. Cisneros is a graduate of Full Sail University with a Bachelors of Science degree in Game Design. This is his second year teaching at New Bridge Middle School. His course schedule includes Career Exploration in Information Technology and Career Exploration in Arts, Audio Visual Technology, & Communications. In Career Exploration in Information Technology students will engage in activities that help them explore the data science pathway, network administration, network security, and computer science principals. In Career Exploration in Arts, Audio Visual Technology, & Communications students will engage in activities that help them explore game art design, 3D modeling and animation, computer graphics and game development, and digital audio production. In both courses students will illuminate the vital knowledge, skills, and purpose of careers in Computer Science, IT and Technology. Students will become empowered to self-assess personal aptitudes, skills, values, personality, and career interests. They will evaluate aligned pathways to identify career education, training, and certifications while gaining information on the most cost-efficient path to entry and discover opportunities within the school setting to explore and prepare for the chosen career.
