Career Technical Education begins in the junior year of high school with an emphasis on continuing on to college with post-secondary education. Career Tech Education programs stress mathematics, science, communication and technology. These programs also emphasize teamwork, hands-on learning, work-site experiences, critical thinking and problem solving. Students have the opportunity to earn a $3,000 scholarship to Sinclair Community College upon completion of their Career Education Program at CHS.
Career Tech programs assist students in transitioning to college and in guiding students toward successful careers. Students have the opportunity to prepare for college by discovering and exploring career options while in high school. Upon successful completion of a program, students will have the potential to earn college credit. By following the career pathways described in the Centerville High School course of studies book, students can be ready to enter one of the following Career Tech programs after the sophomore year.

As we reopen school buildings, we have updated our quarantine guidelines. The Ohio Department of Health still requires school districts to quarantine individuals who have been identified as a close contact; however, the change in quarantine guidance now allows us to quarantine in tiers. Please review the Health & Safety Protocols on our Back to School FAQ page to see the most recent updates.
