Our Career Coaches are always looking for innovative ways to engage students about CTE. CTE students (and even alumni) involved in Dorchester Career and Technology Center had the unique opportunity this year to help promote their programs of study by visiting South Dorchester School (Grades 6-8) during their lunch time to present information and hands-on activities, along with answering questions about the program. It was such a success during Semester 1, that it will continue throughout the school year. Students involved were: Savannah Weber, Tyler Sears, Nia White, and Alumni Mia Jackson. #CTEMonth
Rising career awareness is critical for student engagement and the success of our CTE program. During county-wide PD, DCPS Career Coach Shay Lewis-Sisco provides valuable information to her colleagues on career-focused instructional integrative strategies to increase student engagement. #CTEMonth

Dear Parent/Guardian/Community Member,
Dorchester County Public Schools (DCPS) has initiated a process to modernize its elementary schools, and we need your input in the first step—the Districtwide Elementary School Prototype Educational Specification. This document will identify what an ideal elementary school in Dorchester County should be: the types of instructional and support spaces it will contain, its educational philosophy, and its community features. It will be used to evaluate the older elementary schools in the system, leading to capital improvement projects that will support your children’s needs.
You are invited to a listening session to learn about the process for developing the Districtwide Elementary School Prototype Educational Specification. The first session will be held on February 11, 2025, beginning at 6:00 PM, at Cambridge-South Dorchester High School in the auditorium, and the second session will be held on February 12, 2025, beginning at 6:00 PM, at North Dorchester High School in the auditorium. At these sessions, you will have the opportunity to provide input on the elementary schools. You do not need to attend both sessions as they will both cover the same information. Additional opportunities will be available later this spring to provide comments as the draft educational specification document is developed.
The Districtwide Elementary School Prototype Educational Specification is the first step in providing modernized facilities for the elementary school students of Dorchester County. Your concerns and observations are crucial to the success of this process. We look forward to seeing you at one or both sessions.
Sincerely,
Dr. Jymil Thompson
Superintendent of Schools
