Haywood High School’s goal is to provide training and career preparedness for students to tackle the world that is around them. Our new programs in Advanced Manufacturing, Marketing, Networking, and Nursing, prepare students for career choices that are available now and in the near future. Labor Market statistics in Haywood County are monitored to plan for programs in the future at HHS. Haywood High School encourages all students to attend a post-secondary institution for training and to pursue a certification and/or degree. We just want to make sure that our students are prepared to meet their competition.

Many students realize their career choice while taking courses in the CTE programs; others receive valuable training and information that allows them choices for the career. Our purpose for Haywood High School Career Technical Education is to work with industry partners in aligning programs and certifications to local labor market data.
