Course Information

Career and Technical Education (CTE):

A variety of subjects and programs are available in these career and technical areas: Agriculture Education, Business and Marketing Education, Family and Consumer Science, Health Sciences, Military Science, Skilled and Technical Sciences, and STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math). Juniors and Seniors may also pursue Career and Technical Education course offerings through the WWPS SEATech Skills Center program and the WWCC Running Start program. Career and Technical Education (CTE) courses at Walla Walla High School can enhance both post high school educational pursuits and life long career objectives.

You will need 1 credits in this department to graduate.

Dual Credit Courses:

There are several courses, primarily in specific Career and Technical areas, where a student can earn both high school and college credit at the same time through Walla Walla Community College or other Community and Technical College(s). This option is called “CTE Dual Credit.” These courses are indicated throughout this course catalog as “Dual Credit” courses. Students who complete the courses with a grade of “B” or better (in most cases) and meet the requirements of the articulated course from the college granting the CTE Dual Credit can earn Community/Technical college credit. Programs at Wa-Hi include Agriculture Education, Business Education, and Culinary Arts. A service fee for Dual Credits may apply.

WaHi also has College in the High School options for students to be dual enrolled in a WaHi class on campus and in a state college. For example, students can enroll in College in the High School in American Military History, and earn credits through Central Washington University, tuition free.

Students may also enroll in Advanced Placement (AP) courses in the CTE Department and take an AP exam, with many colleges accepting passing scores to award students with college credit.

CTE TWO for ONE Policy:

Students who take CTE equivalent courses will satisfy two graduation requirements while earning one credit for a single year long course; hence, “two for one”. The purpose of this policy is to create flexibility for students to choose more elective courses or to address other graduation requirements.
