DeSoto High School's Signing DayScholars from DeSoto High School attended the National CTE Signing Day at Dallas College Cedar Valley campus. The event was held on Thursday, April 20, 2023. Students who participate in the Career & Technical Education program (CTE) are provided with education and skills in careers ranging from automotive to veterinary courses for a hands-on learning experience.

A welcome address was given by Dr. Joe Seabrooks, president of the Dallas College Cedar Valley campus. Among the numerous speakers was Dallas College Board of Trustee Mrs. Charletta Compton who offered congratulations and well-wishes to the future generation.

Walmart presented some DHS scholars with $1,000 scholarships. Not to be outdone, PepsiCo gifted $30,000 in scholarships. Ten high school scholars - which included seniors from DeSoto High School - each received $3,000.

Staying with tradition, the CTE Signing Day is a soft commitment from students who intend to enroll and attend the Dallas College Cedar Valley campus.
