PLTW Principles of Engineering CTE CP Pending

Fine Art, Engineering
LHS, THS 10-12 10 Y * N
Lang, CTE Concentrator
Offered At Grades Credits College Credit Pre/Co-Req AP/H Grad Req A-G Repeatable CTE Pathway

Students will explore a broad range of topics, including mechanisms, energy and power, materials and structures, automation,
statistics, and kinematics. Students investigate thermal & alternative energy applications and explore solar hydrogen systems. They
use analysis of beam deflection to learn about material properties and calculating the internal and external forces on an object.
Students learn to control mechanical systems by investigating computer inputs and outputs and understanding hydraulic and
pneumatic fluid power. Prerequisite: Successful completion of Intro to Engineering Design CTE.

PLTW Civil Engineering and Architecture CTE 557510

Fine Art, Engineering
LHS 11-12 10 D N
Lang, CTE Concentrator
Offered At Grades Credits College Credit Pre/Co-Req AP/H Grad Req A-G Repeatable CTE Pathway

The major focus of this course is a long-term project that involves the development of a local property site. As students learn about
various aspects of civil engineering and architecture, they apply what they learn to the design & development of the property. The
course provides freedom to the students to develop the property as a simulation or to model the real world experiences that civil
engineers and architects experience when developing property.

Drafting, Advanced CTE 570780

Yes – see Fine Art, Engineering
LHS 10-12 10 Y Y
page 21 Lang, CTE Capstone
Offered At Grades Credits College Credit Pre/Co-Req AP/H Grad Req A-G Repeatable CTE Pathway

This course is designed for the student desiring additional study in mechanical drafting. Advanced computer-aided drafting methods,
including three-dimensional modeling and dimensional practices are emphasized. Study centers around the design and
development of products through the use of detail and assembly drawings. Students are encouraged to participate in regional, state,
and national drafting competitions. Prerequisite: Successful completion of Intro Engineering Design CTE.

FASHION & INTERIOR DESIGN
Fashion Design & Merchandising Pathway

Fashion & Design CTE 441100

BCHS, LHS, 10-12 10 Yes – see Fine Art, F N Fashion
MHS, THS page 21 Lang, CTE Concentrator
Offered At Grades Credits College Credit Pre/Co-Req AP/H Grad Req A-G Repeatable CTE Pathway

This is a yearlong course which introduces students to design and construction skills necessary to create garments. Units of study will
include clothing selection and care, basic textiles, use and care of equipment and machines, construction of basic sewing techniques
and projects. Careers, history and designers of fashion will be explored. Students will participate in hands-on activities and projects.

Fashion & Design, Advanced CTE 441180

BCHS, LHS, 11-12 10 Y Fine Art, Y Fashion
MHS, THS Lang, CTE Capstone
Offered At Grades Credits College Credit Pre/Co-Req AP/H Grad Req A-G Repeatable CTE Pathway

Advanced Fashion and Design is a yearlong course which will assist students in their clothing choices to enhance their self-image.
Students will implement and improve upon their basic sewing skills to construct several projects. Units of study will include apparel
selection, elements and principles of design, textiles and advanced sewing techniques and projects. Careers in the clothing and
textile industry will be explored. Prerequisite: Successful completion of Fashion & Design CTE.
