Career and Technical Education (CTE)

The mission of Aubrey ISD’s Career and Technical Education is to inspire passion, empower excellence, and nurture innovation within students by providing them with relevant, immersive learning opportunities that equip them to succeed in an ever-changing world.

All AISD students are encouraged to choose a program of study in order to be considered “career-ready” by state standards. The first course of every program is considered a “principles” course, leading to more in-depth courses in a student’s chosen program of study.
