Construction Careers Center is pleased to announce that the Project Lead The Way Pathway to Engineering series of courses will be offered to our students beginning with the
2009-2010 school year. PLTW provides project and problem-based
courses that will add more rigor and relevance to our current technical and academic programs. The PLTW curriculum makes math and science more relevant for students
by engaging them in hands-on, real-world projects that help them understand how the skills they are
learning in the classroom can be applied in everyday life. Research shows that schools committed to
delivering the types of learning experiences offered through PLTW will
see an increase in student motivation, critical thinking skills, and student achievement. We believe
that PLTW will offer our students an excellent introduction to
engineering while serving as a logical next step to providing our students with the best career and
technical education in St. Louis.
