| Abstract | is superintendent-director of Blue Hills Regional Technical School located in Canton, Massachusetts. He can be contacted by e-mail at jciccolo@bluehills.org. MASSACHUSETTS, HOME TO SOME OF THE MOST PRESTIGIOUS INSTITUTIONS OF HIGHER EDUCATION, has also been a leader for decades in the delivery of career and technical education (CTE). Across the state of 351 cities and towns, there are 26 regional CTE school districts and dozens more technical wings in comprehensive high schools. CTE institutions such as Blue Hills Regional Technical School, located in Canton, take students from grades nine through 12 and attract students from the towns in their district. They offer complete academic course offerings, along with sports and other extracurricular activities. A stateapproved admissions policy keeps the process fair and equitable; but for the last decade, double the available spots have been applied for with only about 230 freshmen accepted each year from approximately 14 sending public and private middle schools. |
