CAL COMMUNITY NIGHT!




MISSION




WHY CAL?

Many high schools offer career education and elective programs. What makes CAL
different is that you will take a deep dive into a career while in high school.
Every CAL student will get up to 6 full year classes in their program area. No
other school will be able to offer you the number of classes and the depth of
instruction that you will get at CAL. In short, CAL will train you for a career.
