Great things are happening in Corpus Christi ISD!

Thanks to Dr.Hernandez and his dedicated teachers and students for sharing what they think is impactful at CCISD.

Our very own Dr. Kristi Kendrickson captured some of their CTE programs like Health Sciences, Culinary Arts, Welding, and Audio Visual/Video. These programs not only offer skills and real-world applications, but also certifications.

It's exciting to see how Texas Independent School Districts contribute significantly to workforce development through CTE.

Wishing Corpus Christi ISD the best year yet!
