West Side CTC

West Side CTC is a career and technical center serving students from across the Kingston area and broader Luzerne County, offering hands-on vocational training as an alternative path to traditional academics — so standardized test scores don't quite capture what's offered here. Families drawn to skilled trades, technical certifications, and workforce-ready programs will find this a purposeful choice, particularly for students who thrive in applied, real-world learning environments. Kingston itself sits along the Susquehanna River in the Wyoming Valley, a tight-knit working-class community where practical skills and local industry connections carry real weight.
