Career and Technical Education
The Council Bluffs Community School District creates pathways for students starting in the middle school years. Here, they incorporate International Baccalaureate (IB) designs in courses that develop skills in technology and communications, along with career exploration.

These areas include Arts, Communications, and Information Systems; Applied Sciences, Technology, Engineering and Manufacturing; Health Sciences; Human Services; and Business, Finance, Marketing, and Management. These courses are offered at both high schools and on the campus of Iowa Western Community College. Students can obtain college credit through many of the courses.
