Our General Advisory Committee (GAC) provides overall support to our district CTE programs as a whole. GAC membership is currently comprised of a select group of industry members from our various pathways, our PAC Teacher Leads, and the CTE team.
GAC members help our district ensure all our students are learning the most current skills needed to be successful in the workforce and facilitate the continued growth of our Everett Career Link program.
Local business leaders serving on either a PAC or our GAC (we encourage members to serve on both) provide invaluable knowledge and insight into the future careers of our students. Join us!
-
Our Program Advisory Committees (PACs) work to support our individual CTE programs and pathways.
Our PACs are comprised of Industry Members, Teachers within the pathway, former students when available, and a CTE Team representative (or two).
We are always looking to add more members to our PACs!
