Florida Agriculture is Growing into the Future, and Lake County's CTE students can be a part of this exciting career field! In 2026, modern agriculture embraces cutting-edge technology, sustainable practices, and exciting new opportunities for which we prepare our students through CTE. Precision agriculture is taking the lead, with farmers using robots, sensors, drones, aerial imagery, and GPS technology to boost efficiency and safety on the farm. Data-driven decisions help farmers optimize crops, protect the environment, and grow smarter than ever. This CTE Friday, explore agricultural careers in technology, sustainability, and data science through CTE courses — and be part of shaping the farms of tomorrow!

CTE courses don’t just keep up with the workforce—they lead the way! These programs are constantly evolving to match today’s job market, giving students hands-on, industry-aligned skills that employers are actively looking for. By working closely with local industry partners, CTE programs stay locked in on real career trends and real opportunities. And here’s the best part—many local employers are ready to hire CTE students straight out of high school, offering immediate pathways into competitive, in-demand careers.

February is Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month. Teen Dating Violence is a pattern of emotional, verbal, sexual, or physical abuse used by one person in a current or past dating relationship to exert power and control over another when one or both of the partners is a teenager. Abuse may include insults, coercion, social sabotage, sexual harassment, stalking, threats and/or acts of physical or sexual abuse. This month, we are bringing awareness to this issue, educating students about it, and helping them understand how to prevent it. Wednesday, Feb. 11, is Wear Orange Day. Wear your orange and show you support.
