Fred N Thomas Career Education Center Reviews

CEC has good and bad qualities. The career classes are great as is the post-secondary options. The core acedemic program is lacking and caters to the sterotypes of minorities and tends to lower the bar, so the slower student can keep up. Not at all acedemicly challenging. There is a big push for students to attend CCD or a commuter or vocational college. Traditional 4 year universities are frowned upon.

As a student at CEC I lov ethis school. The classes are exceptional and the teacers are amazing. I love how we get hands on experience in the career classes. I also really like how we are treated as more than just the typical high shool student. We are treated like the young, hard-working men and women that we are.
