With such talented students and dedicated educators, the Smithfield Public Schools is exploring the creation of a Fine Arts CTE pathway - theater, music, visual arts, & dance. Combining our excellent fine arts programs with industry experts - and offering college credit & real world experience - is how we are continuing to lead the way at SHS. #SmithfieldCTE #ArtsEducation #CreativeCareers #SHSPride #ExpandingtheArts

We’re proud to announce the launch of a brand new Biomedical Engineering Program at SHS — giving students a unique opportunity to explore the intersection of biology, medicine, and technology. This innovative CTE program introduces students to real-world challenges like designing prosthetics, developing medical devices, & understanding the science behind human health. It’s hands-on, forward-thinking, & prepares students for future careers in one of the fastest-growing STEM fields. Our 8th graders recently had the opportunity to visit this new program & participate in a hands-on experiment. #SPSInnovates #STEMEducation #Vision2028 #FutureReady
