Criminal Justice

Events in our nation have changed the focus of security and safety. The Criminal Justice Program at CTE prepares students to address the issues facing our community.

In addition to local, state and federal government, career opportunities in the Criminal Justice field are available in private firms and public agencies; small businesses, and large corporations.

The HFM CTE Criminal Justice program provides students with an overview of the criminal justice system and its components — law enforcement, courts, and corrections. Daily experiences include guest speakers, field trips, and hands-on projects such as fingerprinting, forensics, crime scene investigation, mock trials, photography, plaster casts
and use of radar equipment.
