BISD CTE Clusters

1. BISD CTE Clusters • Business Information Management, Money Matters, or Principles of Information Technology may fit into any coherent sequence. These courses would typically fit in tiers 1 or 2 of the cluster. However, they may also be taken concurrently with other CTE courses as well as other possible combinations approved by counselors, teachers, and or principals. • Not every course shown within a cluster will be offered every year. This will depend upon teacher availability, student interest, and principal discretion. • Deviation from the sequence of a cluster must be reviewed and approved by the student’s counselor and principal. • Some CTE courses may count for a 4th year science or math credit. These courses are color coded purple in the following pages. Generally, a student must successfully complete Biology, Chemistry, and Physics prior to the CTE 4th year science. In some cases Physics may be taken concurrently. A student must complete Algebra I, Geometry, and Algebra II (can be concurrent) for a 4th year CTE Math course.
