Career & Technical Education
Marion County Public Schools offers five Career Choice Academies for high school students. These academies relate to specific employment needs in the Ocala/Marion County area and are designed to give students the skill sets they need to pursue successful careers in these areas. Students enrolling in a Career Choice Academy must provide their own transportation to the school and become full-time students of that school. Click here for more information.

The district’s career and technical programs are open enrollment to all eligible middle school students in the district with no pre-requisites required and are committed to a policy of nondiscrimination in employment and educational opportunity.
The district prohibits discrimination in the terms and conditions of employment, and in access to educational programs and activities, and prohibits harassment of any individual or group on the basis of race (including anti-Semitism), ethnicity, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, disability (including HIV, AIDS, or sickle cell trait), pregnancy, religion, marital status, age (except as authorized by law), military status, ancestry, or genetic information, which are classes protected by State and/or Federal law (collectively, "protected classes").
