Hundreds of thousands of California  young people get their start each year in exciting and rewarding careers through secondary Career Technical Education (CTE) courses. Whether students plan to further their education in community colleges, technical schools, or four-year colleges and universities, receive on the job training, or pursue careers in the military, secondary Career Technical Education can be the first step in a pathway toward productive employment and citizenship.  

The mission of Career Technical Education is to help empower students for effective participation in an international economy as world-class workers and citizens. CTE programs are designed to contribute to the broad educational achievement of students, including basic skills such as reading, writing, and mathematics, as well as to their ability to work independently and as part of a team, think creatively and solve problems, and utilize technology.

The purpose of the Gifted and Talented Education Program (GATE) is to meet the intellectual needs of identified gifted children within the Lodi Unified School District.  GATE begins in 4th grade, providing program choices to best meet the individual needs of the the students. The GATE program offers students the ability to stay at their home school and be placed in a GATE cluster class or opt to be part of the lottery for a spot at one of the self-contained GATE classes offered at John Muir, Vinewood, or Elkhorn School. 

Gifted instructional strategies include differentiated instruction that provides rigor and depth in learning. Students often participate in cooperative learning groups working together to solve complex problems. The curriculum is compacted and accelerated providing pacing that meets the needs of gifted learners. Project-based and problem-based learning is a key component in GATE classrooms. Students are expected to be active participants in the learning process, both individually and as a team member.
