CTI students go on sky-high tour

Karis Slaughter, a junior in the TV/Film Production program at the Career & Technical Institute, has a passion for graphic design, which paid off when her poster was chosen to promote a unique play at a local, private school. 


Community partners collaborate with CTI

Tradespeople and educators are working together to provide hands-on, real-life experiences for the students who attend the Career and Technical Institute.  More than 45 community members attended The Annual Trade Advisory Committee meeting December 6.  It was the first time the meeting was held in-person since October 2018 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.


AHS clubs keep kids focused and engaged

Wednesdays are buzzing at Dutchess BOCES’ Alternative High School because the students get to spend time in fun and informative clubs.  The offerings were chosen based upon students’ interests.


Music helps develop crucial skills

A new routine of jamming to music at the end of the day is helping students in Jessica Wegener’s class develop crucial skills while creatively playing as a “band.”


Happy Halloween at BOCES campus

For young children, Halloween is a magical day and the Salt Point Center’s celebration this year did not disappoint.  In fact, it also provided fulfilling, career-based experience for many of the young adults who attend the Career and Technical Institute.
