NCTS Students Explore J. Everett Light Career Center CTE Classes

NCTS MYP unit question:  
How will I explore my world?

Check out some of the fun projects students are developing as they explore JELCC CTE classes during their NCTS career planning class:


"The Visual Design class has a chill vibe. I like it because I get to be creative. I got to design and make my own t-shirt. I want to take this class so I can be creative while I am at school." --Saleeth



"In Computer Repair, I got to dissect a computer and learn about the parts inside of it. I learned a lot; and now, I have more questions about things I want to continue to learn. For example, I want to learn more about the G3 back up disc." -Phebra 



"I like the fact that Culinary Arts is the type of class that gives us hands-on learning experiences. Also, you get to eat what you cook. I want to be a chef, so this is a class I will take while I am in high school."-Raven 


"Animation & Film is a good class for me because I like to be creative, and I want to make movies when I get older.  In this class, I got to learn how to edit sound and film. It was actually a lot of fun to learn about everything that goes into making a movie." -Rodney 


"Welding is hard but fun. I have always wanted to try welding, ever since Mrs. Cooper took us on a tour of the welding class during summer school. I am enjoying learning something new " -Asia 


"The Early Childhood Education class is important because we learn about how to take care of children.  I also like that I can take a break from reality and play with the kids. It's a lot of fun." -Victoria 


"My goal is to open up my own salon, so this Cosmetology class is an important class for me 
to take during high school." -Mychaela 


"Music & Sound is a good class for me because I want to be a musician. I like making beats and music.  I have learned a lot in this class. I plan to take this class during my junior and senior years." -Marcus
