Career & Technical Education

Our Career and Technical Education team coordinates all CTE programs throughout the district for grades 6-12, including Southside and Eastside technical centers and Locust Trace Agriscience Center. We help schools provide students with the skills to move on to college or the workforce and a desire for life-long learning. We also serve as a connection between the schools and our business community, relate school courses to technical opportunities, and develop school/business partnerships and future job possibilities.

Southside and Eastside technical centers will merge at 100 Midland Ave. in downtown Lexington and be ready for classes in August 2025. This new facility will give us space to increase our enrollment as we develop hybrid programs and a skilled workforce to meet industry demands in our community.
