DIPLOMA PROGRAMS OFFERED Business Education Diploma Program Human Service Technology Industrial Technology Information Technology Systems Precision Agriculture/Bioscience Program Senior Years Apprenticeship Option (SYAO) CTS is a strategy developed by the Prairie Rose S.D. enabling students in small rural high schools to access Senior Years Technology Education options. CTS provides a structural framework for aligning learning opportunities in school and community settings that result in highly individualized, flexible programming. Optional courses from Technology Education (Electronics, Building Systems, Home Economics, and Business/ Computer Studies) are combined with community-based “Career Internship”, and Career Path Management activity from across the curriculum to create 'programs'.

Students subscribe to 'programs' based on their interests, experience and aspirations (typically at the S3/S4 level). A program is made up of eight (8) option courses that serve to focus and develop the knowledge, skills, and interests of students in a broad occupational area (e.g. Information Technology Systems). Learning activities engage students in a process that incorporates technology applications in core subjects, lab-based experimentation and internship. Outcomes include high levels of student ‘engagement’ and ‘technological literacy’.
