Many students are dual enrolled in a college while taking Career and Technical Education Programs. They receive college credit through the “Running Start Program”. Articulation agreements between the Career and Technical Education Programs and Northeastern colleges allow students to have a seamless transition between high school and college. The center features many fully operational businesses that are open to the public during regular school hours, including Granite State Credit Union, Bronco Barn (Hallmark, convenience store), Checkers Restaurant, Little Broncos Pre-School, Blooming Broncos Greenhouse and Flower Shop, Alvirne Agri-Pet Kennel, our forestry program and of course the Alvirne Farm. |
