Career Center Campus

Did you know, Valentine's Day, also called Saint Valentines Day or the Feast of Saint Valentine, is celebrated annually on February 14th? It originated as a Christian feast day honoring one or two early Christian martyrs named Saint Valentines and though later folk traditions, has become a significant cultural, religious, and commercial celebration of romance and love in many regions of the world. Yep-TRUE!

February is Career Technical Education (CTE) Month. Take a look at the new Colorado CT Career Cluster Map (http://coloradostateplan.com/)

D51 Career Center is well represented in the state's pathways and vision.

D51 Career Center is a popular place. The D51 Career Center is excited to be the "go to place" for many D51 "hands-on" learners. We strive to teach the whole person and do so with the student at the center. Our curriculums are designed to engage and challenge; personal investment and the willingness to be present is critical. We continue to promote family and community involvement in all we do. If you would like to visit and see for yourself, please contact a lead instructor or administration.

Something to remember.

Career and technology education (CTE) can give your child what is needed to succeed for life: techinical skills, academic skills, and employability skills. In addition, career and technical educations helps students see how and what they are learning applies to the needs of employers. I think the D51 Career Center Campus does it better than most and that is why I say...."The D51 Career Center- Home of the F51 Rockstars!" Join me in spreading the news and let's celebrate our students, staff and programs!

In January of 2023, D51 Career Center's Culinary Arts program became the first high school program in Colorado to be honored with accreditation by the American Culinary Federation. The curriculum was examined and the program facility was inspected, previous students were interviewed and local industry professionals were consulted before the accreditation was granted. Students at Career Center may now take a certification test at the fundamental culinarian level that will help them in the workforce or college.

Mark your calendars you do not want to miss this amazing opportunity. Last years turn out was a huge success and many students found employment. SWAP https://gjswap.org/ will be hosting a Youth Job Fair here at Career Center on March 16th 2023 from 9:00am-2:00pm. If you are looking for employment, this is the place to be!
