- About Antigo High School's CTE Program -
Antigo High School's Career & Technical Education (CTE) program is educating the next generation of doers, makers, and hands-on workers by providing the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in today's in-demand workforce. Through applied learning and industry partnerships, CTE students gain the experience and training they need to be successful in 10 important career pathways.
While other districts have seen reductions in their staff and programs, or have had CTE cut entirely, the Antigo High School CTE programs are fully supported with staff, classes, and community support. You can help support the student's path to a successful career by attending this free event.
