La Porte Independent School District’s Career and Technical Education Department strives to equip students with the tools that will help them be successful in current business and industry careers as well as post-secondary education. We offer a wide variety of career clusters for our students to choose from for their career paths. Emphasizing rigor and relevance through problem solving in real-world applications, the courses in this department are carefully aligned to the workforce interests and needs of our students and community.  The courses are designed to move students through a set or sequence of courses that will lead toward a foundation in a program of study that culminates with foundation skills in a career and industry certifications. For more information, call 281-604-7060 or email CTE Coordinator Dr. Michelle Baker at bakera@lpisd.org.
