Abstract	Integrating academics into career and technical education (CTE) is vital to the success of the students, states and nation. Research has shown that incorporating literacy and numeracy skills within students' areas of interest dramatically increases the retention and understanding of these skills. As Cass Career Center--a shared-time center in Harrisonville, Missouri--discovered, it is the collaboration of CTE and English and math instructors that provides the opportunity for students to flourish. Yet the school has taken this concept one step further: It is now offering level-four English and math credit integrated into CTE. This article describes how the school accomplished this, and how it is preparing learners for college and careers. (ERIC).
