We have created self-selection posters where students can take a positive thought and keep it for themselves or give it to a friend to share ways of gratitude. We challenge you to share gratitude with those around you.

We are very grateful for a terrific staff and feeling supported everyday! Thank you!

Take the time on November 11, to express our gratitude and thanks to our Veterans.

Attention parents and guardians of 8th grade students:

If your child interested in attending CTEC next school year, please plan to attend their Open House on November 26th OR February 11th (click link for flyer)

CTEC is a vocational school where students can attend for half a day, every day in high school, to gain hands on experience in a trade/shop, and then attend Ludlow High School for the other half of the day. This allows students to earn entry level certifications that will give them an advantage when applying for jobs or attending further schooling in that shop. Students will also earn their high school diploma allowing them to continue on to a college or university if they choose to. Ludlow will provide transportation to CTEC. CTEC is the ONLY vocational school that is considered within Ludlow Public Schools and therefore the only vocational school where transportation will be provided.

BEFORE applying, PLEASE make sure you have visited the school, understand how this may impact your child's school day at Ludlow High School (for example, your child will not be able to take any special, including Band) and have an idea of what kind of shop they may be interested in. For more information about the available shops, please visit their website at: https://lpvctec.org/ Applications are due by April 1st, and should be completed with a parent/guardian through the CTEC website.
