Career & Technical Education Services

Our Mission

The Onslow County Schools community will prepare students to be globally competitive leaders and responsible citizens.

Career & Technical Education is where skills meet success. We provide course offerings that meet student needs, interests, abilities, and aspirations.  The availability of specific courses is determined by opportunities for employment, advanced education and practical life application.

Middle school students have the opportunity to participate in exploratory courses in business and information technologies, technology systems, and career decisions. 

In the OCS traditional high schools, courses are offered in 7 different program areas.  You can find more information on those programs here. 

Each high school has a Career Development Coordinator (CDC) to support the school-to-career connection and facilitate business/industry partnerships.
