Ryan Brennecke/Bulletin photos The classroom has 20 different stations where students gain real, hands-on experience in each trade. Ryan Cochran, the school’s career and technical education , or CTE, coordinator, said that once con- struction 2 and 3 classes are added, students will be able to complete the series in three trimesters and earn a national certification in con- struction. Construction, along with robot- ics and computer science, are the latest additions to the school’s CTE offerings, and the classes are full. “A lot of our kids’ goals are to go to college and get a degree,” Co- chran said. “But a lot of our kids want to go into some amazing trade jobs that are much needed and have great wages. Ultimately, that’s what we want to provide is an avenue for kids that are college-bound and also career-bound.” CTE programs provide students an opportunity to explore potential career paths in high school and give them courses that teach technical skills and applied academics and lead to a career after graduation. Programs and career paths range from agriculture, automotive, con- PHOTOS FROM TOP: One of the career technical education modules allows stu- dents an opportunity for hands-on learning at Crook County High School.

With increasing costs of higher education, educators say there has been a shift in how students look at paths after high school. Educa- tors argue that options like tech- nical trade school, apprenticeship programs and two-year degrees can lead to just as good, if not bet- ter, quality of life than the tradi- tional four-year path. Participation in CTE programs has also been shown to lead to higher high school graduation rates. Cochran said the school district has placed more emphasis on CTE programs over the past few years, a trend seen in districts throughout Central Oregon. See Education / A4 A Redmond whitewater salvage expert known in Northwest search and rescue circles was arraigned Monday for allegedly attempting to murder his wife. Prosecutors allege Marshall Glenn Angel, 77 , also known as Mark, beat his wife, Judy Angel, with a rock, at- tempted to stran- gle her with the sash of a robe, placed a bag over her head, threatened her with a firearm Angel and attempted to throw her in a pond before she escaped. According to previous cover- age in The Bulletin, Angel is a re- nowned whitewater rescue expert, credited with pulling boats, valu- ables and human remains from bodies of water around the state. He’s especially well known for his rescues from the rapids of the Deschutes River and his practice of offering his services for free to families searching for lost loved ones. Deschutes County sheriff’s dep- uties responded to reports of a dis- pute near the couple’s Redmond residence Saturday morning and found Judy Angel, who was taken to a local hospital by ambulance, according to the sheriff’s office. In an unusual hearing in De- schutes County Circuit Court on Monday afternoon, Angel was ar- raigned on six charges, including second-degree attempted mur- der and four other felonies. Angel spoke for himself and appeared to accept what prosecutors accused him of. Circuit Court Judge Alycia Sykora repeatedly suggested he ac- cept a public defender to assist in his defense. “I don’t want you to talk about the details of your case Mr. Angel, but there are some very serious allegations here,” Sykora said, not- ing that Angel could face 20 years in prison for the attempted mur- der charge alone.
