If you’ve been a listener of this podcast for a while, then you know how much I encourage you to build and nurture relationships with staff members in your school building. Today we’re going to be looking at a relationship that I absolutely do not want you to miss out on, and that is one with your CTE (career and technical education) teachers. CTE teachers are truly an untapped resource in our schools, and there are so many ways that you can work together to better serve your students. That’s why Khristen Massic is joining me for a conversation where she shares her experience in this particular space.  Khristen offers a perspective that we likely don’t see as high school counselors and stresses the importance of thoughtful communication between CTE teachers and school counselors. We talk about practical ideas for nurturing this partnership, the unique strengths that each role brings to the table, opportunities for collaborating on career exploration with our students, and so much more.
