Blackfoot High School is constructing a new Career and Technical Education (CTE) and Student Center, with Assistant Superintendent Ryan Wilson overseeing the project. The idea originated in 2021 when plans for a new elementary school led to repurposing the old building into the Blackfoot Technical Education Center (BTEH). The center will offer various courses, including machining, welding, auto mechanics, healthcare, broadcasting and hospitality, in collaboration with local businesses and the Shoshone-Bannock Tribes. Although construction is ongoing, the facility aims to provide students with career exploration opportunities and a head start in their chosen fields.
