Toledo Public Schools offers transportation either to or from the student’s home school to the school hosting the career technology program at mid-day. Students who have a career technology class in another building in the morning need to secure their own transportation to that building in the morning for their career technology class. After the career technology class, students will be transported back to their home school for the remainder of their classes in the afternoon. Students who have an afternoon career technology class will have their regular transportation to school in the morning for their academic classes. Students will then be transported to their career technology program location and will need to secure transportation from their career technology building to their home after school.

There are three ways that students can earn college credit by successfully completing their TPS Career Technology program. Not all types of credit are available for all programs, but every program does have an option to earn college credit in at least one of the following ways:

College Credit Plus
College Credit Plus: Students in several TPS Career Technology programs have an opportunity to earn college credit through Owens Community College for the work they are completing in their Career Technology classes and lab. To qualify, students must take the Accuplacer assessment and meet minimum score requirements. The grade that a student earns in their high school class will be the same grade that is on the college transcript. College Credit Plus opportunities are listed on each program page.

CTAG Agreements
The Ohio Department of Higher Education has partnered with the Ohio Department of Education to identify career technical program content that meets standards in specific college classes. To earn these credits, students must successfully complete their CTE program and earn a qualifying score on the end of course exam. Credits can be claimed up to three years after graduation when a student enters a college or university program that offers the identified classes. Information regarding available CTAG credits is available on each program page.

Articulation Agreements:
Some Career Technology programs have college articulation agreements specific to the TPS program and a college. The requirements to earn these college credits varies with the program and the college. Opportunities to earn articulated college credits are identified on the program page if available.
