CAVIT - Casa Grande Union High School

CAVIT (Central Arizona Valley Institute of Technology) is a specialized Career and Technical Education (CTE) district that serves students from Casa Grande Union High School and surrounding districts in Pinal County. Located on Casa Grande Avenue, this campus functions as a collaborative vocational hub where high school students can gain hands-on training in high-demand career fields. The school operates with the mission of bridging the gap between traditional secondary education and the workforce, offering programs that lead to industry certifications and college credit while students complete their regular high school requirements.

The curriculum at the Casa Grande campus is designed to be immersive, focusing on technical skill acquisition through state-of-the-art facilities and real-world simulations. Students typically attend CAVIT for half of their school day to participate in specialized programs—such as nursing, welding, information technology, or emergency medical services—while spending the remainder of their day at their home high school. By providing this dual-track educational model, the institution helps students graduate with a distinct professional advantage, preparing them either for immediate entry into the workforce or for advanced post-secondary studies in their chosen technical pathways.
