Career & Technical Education (CTE)
Mission: Preparing today’s students for tomorrow’s opportunities
Vision: To provide Tennessee students the opportunity to participate in a
rigorous and relevant career and technical education program that leads to
academic achievement and successful employment in a global economy.
Marketing EducationMission:
Marketing education is a program of study designed to prepare individuals for
initial and continuing employment and education in marketing, management and
entrepreneurship. Another mission is to build an understanding of the wide
range of social and economic responsibilities that accompany the right to
engage in marketing in a free enterprise system.
This is the second year that I will be teaching a class in Personal Finance/
Building Wealth. Did you know Tennessee has the privilege of being number
one? In this case number one is not an advantage, as we are number one for
individuals that have filed for Bankruptcy. The TN Department of Education
has taken notice and is now requiring all students graduating in or after
2012 be enrolled in a Personal Finance course. To be prepared for this class
I have attended several workshops sponsored by the Federal Reserve Board of
Atlanta. This is a great class!! I wish my own kids had taken this class!
There are four concepts covered that meet course standards.
They include:
1. income, 2. money management 3. spending and credit and 4. saving
and investing.
For more information regarding this class, please visit the CTE standards
located on the St. of Tennessee Department of Education website
