NPR just published a story about high school student engagement, citing research that says:
-Only 41% of secondary school age students who do not intend on attending college find school to be engaging.
-Non-college bound students are less likely to say they have a teacher who makes them feel excited about their futures.
-Just 23% of high schoolers say they hear "a lot" about apprenticeships, certifications, and vocational training.
At CATEC we're excelling at reaching these students, working to engage our learners, give them hope for their futures, and educate them on their training opportunities. Read the story here: https://www.npr.org/2024/08/29/nx-s1-5090895/teens-school-college-poll
