  • Total cost for all phases of the Barbara Roberts Career Technical Education Center is estimated at just under $20 million, which has been broken down into the following phases:

    Phase 1 (Preconstruction)

    • Interior work for Diesel Tech and Truck Driving, as well as Fire Science / EMT pathways.

    Phase 2B Construction:

    • Interior work for Agribusiness and Manufacturing pathways.

  • We are currently in the final stages of Phase 1/Preconstruction.

    • Gravel for building pad: $650,000

    • Concrete for fire tower: $250,000

    • Assembling fire tower: $525,000

  • Community members and business leaders throughout our partnering districts are encouraged to send letters of support for the Barbara Roberts CTEC to their state and local representatives. Contact information is available here.

    As each pathway opens to students we hope area businesses will continue to play a vital role in the success of the center with participation in curriculum development, a future Industry Advisory Committee, student tours and internships with local organizations and on-site guest lectures that teach important insights into the local workforce environment.
