2025-2026 Enrollment Requests for Returning Students

Current KCTC  11^th grade students have the opportunity to participate in Returning Enrollment for the 2025-2026 school year.  Because we give returning students priority placement, the student must maintain good standings in attendance and academics.  Failure to do so will result in placement loss.

Academics/Attendance/Conduct: In some cases, if more requests for a class are made than seats are available, we will make selections based on student performance, attendance, and teacher recommendation.

Students will be given the opportunity during class time to make a selection for next year.  This process is done through the student’s PowerSchool account. 

Students will be asked to declare one of three options:

1. Select the program and session he/she would like to attend in 2025-2026.
   (Some programs and schools do not participate all three sessions)
2. Select Undecided  (a member of the Student Services staff will connect with the student to discuss options and possible program visits to other programs)
3. Select Not Returning

Returning Enrollment is from January 14-March 14. 

Students may change their selection after that point through the student services office, but they will no longer have priority placement.

Returning Enrollment lists will be sent to the student’s high school counselor in February.

2025-2026 Enrollment confirmation letters will be mailed in May.

Enrollment Process for Local High School Students

• Student should discuss graduation requirements with his/her high school counselor to be sure the student is on track.
• Attending Kent Career Tech Center’s Open House with a parent is important as they provide an overall glimpse of the Tech Center’s unique hands on learning environment.
