Student/Parent Information Night

Cuyahoga Valley Career Center (CVCC) will host an Information Night on Thursday, January 12, 2012 (snow date – Thursday, January 19) from 7 - 9 p.m. High school students and their parents are invited to learn more about the specialized career and college preparation opportunities available through the Career Center's nearly 30 career-technical programs.

CVCC Information Night offers program visitation and additional details to help with the decision-making process. High school students in Brecksville-Broadview Heights, Cuyahoga Heights, Garfield Heights, Independence, Nordonia Hills, North Royalton, Revere and Twinsburg school districts utilize the CVCC campus. Those districts are considered CVCC associate districts.

Most CVCC programs have Tech Prep options, enabling students to earn college credit while at CVCC. This is especially desirable in today’s economy, allowing students and parents to save money on college as students gain early credits. Many CVCC programs also offer industry certification opportunities.

CVCC’s tuition-free, half-day programs enable students to continue their academic studies at their regular high school, while acquiring technical skills at the Career Center. These skills put them ahead of their classmates and prepare them to begin work or continue their education after high school. Information Night provides a "show and tell" experience for both students and parents.

Cuyahoga Valley is conveniently located at 8001 Brecksville Road in Brecksville, one mile east of the I-77/Wallings Road exit (diagonally across from Wallings Road on Route 21). For more information, contact Recruitment Counselor Derek Taylor at dtaylor@cvccworks.com or 440-746-8286.
