1. CTE Coordinators Update
Greenbush Drive-In
CTE Coordinators Update
Record new CTE coordinators info. (make school visits)
Focus on accreditation model and student outcomes with this group
Energy Pathway
The Advantage – organizational health is crucial, conflict is healthy, silence is disagreement, consensus only leads to mediocre decisions and frustration
Intros:
Current state of students in college and career
CTE as the solution
Group discussions with feedback on polleverywhere:
icebreaker?
talk about general status of cTe in district (top notch, middle, afterthought in everyone’s mind)
Discuss accreditation components
have them respond to polleverywhere rating themselves a 1, 2, 3 for each of the seven components
Start doing – challenges/obstacles
Stop doing – challenges/obstacles
Student outcomes
Burning questions

2. Introductions Introductions:
Pair-Share activity: pair up and high-five, good morning, determine who traveled the furthest to attend today (by hours) (reward furthest traveler – silicone band), share the following: Name, School, position, # years experience in CTE, furthest travel goes first and end with another high-five
Ask for hands raised for # years experience in CTE : 1 – 3, 4 – 10, 10-20, over 20 (reward most experienced – silicone band)

3. Will Ferrell - PBS What could have been…..
In this clip from an acceptance speech he gave at a PBS awards show, Ferrell, one of my favorite comedians, reveals some interesting information about his career choices, let’s take a look
Looks like perhaps Will Ferrell could have used a marketing and sales CTE Pathway to guide him to his dream career of selling insurance. To make sure he took the correct courses so he was prepared. Luckily Will had comedy to fall back on…………
What about our students? How many of them experience true career awareness & guidance to help them make a more informed decision about what they have a passion for? How many of our students, when asked what their career plans are, still answer with “I’m going to college”……that’s not a career plan. I talked to one student this year who was having trouble deciding between WSU and KU. I was assuming both schools had strong programs in her career focus but she told me that the deciding factor was which student section would be more fun to be part of at basketball games.
