Welcome to Career Education

Thank you for visiting our new Fayetteville Public Schools' Career Education Web site. As you can see, we're making significant progress as we work to continue developing our program.

Career Education (CE) begins with a focused exploration of the self in relation to the world of work. Students discover their interests, talents, aptitudes, and abilities. They also learn which careers might suit them best. The workforce has evolved into a world where skills and academics go hand in hand. CE classes have also evolved over the years to incorporate industry standards, academic standards (reading, writing and mathematics), career standards, and life skills. Aligning community college and university curriculums is a focused goal so that students begin planning and earning college credit while still in high school.

Fayetteville Public Schools' Career Education program currently offers six career pathways:

• Agricultural Sciences
• Business & Marketing
• Family & Consumer Sciences
• Journalism
• Pre-Engineering
• Television & Film

Learn more about these six career pathways.
