CTE Scholar Showcase
Welcome, Scholars, Families, and Community Members to the Second-Annual Federal Way Public Schools CTE Scholar Showcase!
We are proud to celebrate our Career and Technical Education (CTE) scholars at this evening's showcase as we highlight the innovative projects, skills, and talents cultivated throughout the year in CTE programs and courses. It is through events like this that we reinforce the importance of CTE programs as invaluable pathways that prepare our scholars for college and careers. Tonight's showcase is also a testament to the commitment of our CTE educators and the passion of our students, showcasing how CTE programs not only teach 21st-century leadership skills but also foster creativity and ambition. Thank you for joining us in celebrating the boundless potential of our CTE scholars.
