Message from the Director
Welcome to the Dover Area High School Career Technical & Education! We want to help every student build their future at Dover Area High School.
We are proud to provide nine CTE Programs of Study to our students. We currently offer:
Business (Accounting Technology, Marketing, and Business Office Management)
STEM (Engineering Technology, and Computer Technology)
Visual Communications (Commercial & Advertising Art)
Agriculture (Agriculture Mechanics, Horticulture and Agriculture General).
Since the 2012-2013 school year, Dover Area High School has offered Department of Education Bureau of Career & Technical Education approved programs of study. Each program includes a series of classes designed to help students build the skills they need for success in their chosen field. Our students can schedule elective credits to complete these programs while working towards the rest of their high school graduation requirements. We also have three student organizations to support our CTE students: DECA, FFA, and SkillsUSA. These help our students build teamwork and leadership skills. Our programs are unique in offering students a chance to explore several CTE fields before committing to a program. In addition to gaining valuable skills, students can acquire college credits through state and local articulation agreements with post-secondary institutions, earn industry certifications, and participate in work-based learning experiences.
Dover’s CTE students are ready for life after graduation, whether they are choosing employment in their chosen career, enlistment in the military, or enrollment in post-secondary education.
Each Program of Study is categorized by CIP (Classification of Instructional Programs) Codes to support accurate tracking, assessment, and reporting of program participation and completion. CIP was developed by the U.S. Department of Education’s National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) in 1980.

The lack of English skills shall not be a barrier to admission or participation in the district's activities and programs. The district offers CTE programs in Business, STEM, Visual Communications, and Agriculture.
