Testimonials

Eclipse Guzman '24

{I never wanted to go to college until I came to Region 10.  In fact my parents encouraged me to attend Region 10 because they thought I needed technical training for a career.  But when I signed up for Creative Digital Media and started learning all the software, I realized I loved graphic design.  The field trips we took to MassArt, MECA and SMCC that made me realize college was the path towards a career I would love to go to each day.  Ms. Palmer helped me organize my digital portfolio and I will be attending Maine College of Art and Design in the fall. I can’t wait!

Tiegan McAllister

{When I decided to take CNA I was taking it to become a CNA, I did not know that an amazing teacher and person would be teaching me all the skills to become a CNA. I don’t think there are any words that do Mrs. McMahon justice, but she is the most kind, caring, encouraging, and inspiring teacher and person I have ever met. She teaches her students to exceed that standard of care in everything they do and in doing that she has built an outstanding reputation for herself and her students in the nursing community in the surrounding Brunswick area. I have been in many different situations where Mrs. McMahon’s name gets brought up and everyone who knows her loves her.

Meganne Randall

{One thing I love about Region Ten is how it’s a community where you are working with like-minded people who want to go into a similar job/trade as you; while learning the skills by actually doing hands-on work rather than a normal school classroom.

3 BENEFITS OF

CAREER & TECHNICAL EDUCATION

3 BENEFITS OF

Career & Technical Education

1. MORE LIKELY TO GRADUATE ON TIME

  Research shows that CTE students are 7% more likely to graduate on time. This increase is largely due to the hands-on, real-world application that CTE provides, making education more engaging and relevant for students​  (Build Your Future)​​ (Edmentum)​.

2. READY FOR COLLEGE & CAREER

 Over 75% of CTE students enroll in postsecondary education after high school. Additionally, CTE students are more likely to obtain industry-recognized credentials and certifications, which are highly valued by employers. These credentials provide a competitive edge in the job market, leading to better employment opportunities and higher earning potential​ (Department of Education)​​ (Penn Foster)​.

3. INCREASED EARNING POTENTIAL

 CTE programs equip students with the skills needed for high-demand and high-wage careers. For example, students with a CTE-related associate degree or certificate earn on average $9,000 more per year compared to those with a degree in humanities or social sciences. This significant earning potential underscores the value of CTE in preparing students for financially stable futures​ (Sivad Inc)​​ (Penn Foster)​.
