With the signing of the bipartisan Strengthening Career and Technical Education for the 21st Century Act, Congress and the president managed to reauthorize the Carl T. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act (known as “Perkins”), after an earlier attempt in the Obama administration fizzled. Maria Ferguson describes the growing support for career and technical education (CTE), especially in rural areas, and sums up what the new bill does to help states and districts in their efforts to create stronger career pathways for students.

Systems Of Support

Successful implementation of response to intervention (RTI) models at the secondary level is dependent on schoolwide execution. However, because academic content is the primary focus of secondary educators, little attention has been focused on how to integrate RTI within career and technical education courses to strengthen college and career readiness. This chapter examines RTI practices at the secondary level with a focus on schoolwide implementation to incorporate systems of support in career and technical education courses. Current practices to support college and career readiness within schoolwide reform movements to incorporate RTI components and protocols are described. A revised model that incorporates a systems framework is discussed within career and technical education. Attention to career pathways, curriculum design, and intervention strategies are included as they specifically relate to college and career readiness. The information presented herein will be useful for educators seeking to improve RTI outcomes through schoolwide integration of intervention strategies to support student success after high school.
