“We are excited about all of the [Career Tech] pathways,” said Deana Goodwine, Sylacauga City Schools’ Director of Workforce Development. “Students can find their ‘niche’ in any of these. We have just opened the STEM Engineering Pathway this year. It is new and we have a strong partnership with the local industry.”

The deadline for course application for the 2023-24 school year is March 31.
