Step into the role of an engineer, adopt a problem-solving mindset, and make the leap from dreamer to doer. This program’s courses engage students in compelling, real-world challenges that help them become better collaborators and thinkers. Students engage in the national Project Lead the Way engineering curriculum, which takes them through projects in engineering design, architecture, and aerospace.

Non-Discrimination Notice

A career and technical student organization (CTSO) is an extracurricular group for students in CTE pathways to further their knowledge and skills by participating in activities, events, and competitions.  Students within the Engineering program have the opportunity to participate in Bearbotics.  

Bearbotics is an after-school program available to all high-school students in the Lewis-Palmer School District in the Tri-Lakes area of Colorado. The focus is STEM enrichment and achievement, but each year's program is run like a business with related opportunities to grow skills in leadership, teamwork, project management, machining and fabrication, fundraising, communication (including social media), and community outreach. This program is excellent real-world experience to help prepare for the next stage in each student's path -- especially if that's college.

Bearbotics Program of Work

A CTE Program Advisory Committee is a group of individuals whose experience and abilities represent a cross section of a particular occupational area. The primary purpose of the CTE Program Advisory Committee is to assist educators in establishing, operating, and evaluating the CTE program – which serves the needs of the students, the community, and the business/industry partners – and to provide expertise and insight about current/future industry and technological changes.

Each CTE Program reflects on their strengths and sets goals to address challenges.  A Program of Work is then created that guides the actions and discussions of the Advisory Committee.  The LPHS Engineering Program of Work can be accessed via the following link:

Advisory Committee meetings are scheduled to occur semi-annually and discussions are captured in meeting minutes, as linked below:

If you are interested in serving on the Engineering Advisory Committee, please complete the Contact Us form. 

Each CTE program must undergo a regular approval process in which local employment demand, occupational information and work-based learning opportunities are combined with pathway determination, course sequencing, programs of study and assurances.  To view the program approval for the LPHS Engineering program, please visit the link below.

A CTE program of study is a comprehensive, structured approach for delivering academic and career and technical education to prepare students for postsecondary education and career success. It consists of a coherent sequence of academic and career and technical courses offering students the opportunity to earn an industry-recognized credential or certificate at the secondary or postsecondary level, or an associate or baccalaureate degree related to the focus of the program of study.  To view the programs of study for the Engineering program, please visit the links below.
