Mission Statement
"To prepare each student with relevant knowledge and skills for learning, career and life"
The Clark County Skills Center offers Career and Technical Education in 14 program areas
where jobs are plentiful and pay well. You can earn college credit through many of the
programs as well as industry certifications and licenses.
The courses outlined are full year classes offered in three-hour blocks to students of junior
status or higher. Classes meet Monday through Friday. Session I is from 7:50 am – 10:20
am. Session II is from 11:10 am – 1:40 pm. Some programs are offered during Session III
and vary on meeting days and times, but start no earlier than 2:00 pm. Some program areas
offer a second year course of study which is outlined in the course description.
Students attending the Skills Center will be bussed from their sending high school with the
exception of those attending the Cosmetology Program, which meets off campus. Requests
for driving approval are given through the sending high school only. Some programs offer off-campus
internships and students will be responsible for their own transportation to the
internship site.
Due to the fact that Skills Center programs offer hands-on learning and lab experiences, it is
mandatory that each student provide proof of health insurance or school accident insurance. If
there is concern about insurance coverage, please contact the Skills Center office. All
students will be expected to attend an orientation program at the Skills Center with their parent
or guardian.
The development of professionalism and leadership skills is a hallmark of the Clark County
Skills Center. Each program offered at the Skills Center participates in facilitating the growth
of the student’s abilities. The core areas of communication and interpersonal skills, teamwork,
problem solving, quality, goal setting, resource management, employability and community
service and citizenship skills are all addressed in every program.
