Taking career education to new heights, the Career and Technical programs once housed in various facilities throughout the MSB School District, now have their own place and identity at the Mat Su Career and Technical High School. Innovative career pathways were designed with a focus on individual learning, flexible curriculums, and adaptability over time, making it a 2008 finalist for the CEFPI McConell Award. The facility was wildly successful and is currently adding pathways for natural resources, human services and transportation.
