Tyrrell County Schools Career and Technical Education Remote Instruction Fall 2020
Tyrrell County Public Schools began quite differently this fall with all three schools going completely remote. This type of instruction provides many challenges for educators, students and families alike. In anticipation of these challenges, the Career and Technical Education staff began preparing for the possibility of remote instruction in July 2020. CTE requires students to not only learn the content, but to physically demonstrate a number of skills related to careers and the various program curricula.
The TCS Career and Technical Education Department will be implementing a variety of remote instructional strategies to provide each student the best possible skills based education during this first nine weeks. Some of these strategies include:
It is very important that each student feels as connected to his or her teacher during this period of remote learning. If families have any questions or concerns for CTE staff members, please feel free to call us at Columbia High School (2527968161) or email us.
We are here to support our students and families in whatever way possible.
We look forward to seeing our students back in CTE Classrooms and Labs soon!
