Career classes have contracted with local businesses such as electricians for students with hands-on experience that are interested in working after high school.

For example, the Auto Tech class will actually repair vehicles, either from the school system or from people who volunteer to take them there, for free, the Early Childhood Education course actually operates a daycare, Teacher Cadet students will work in elementary schools during their second semester, the Construction Technology class constructs a house every year for Habitat for Humanity, and the Advanced-level cosmetology students will actually take customers.

Since the Career Center is not a main high school in the WS/FCS system, it devotes a certain amount of time to attracting new students.

Recent items include bumper stickers, glow-in-the-dark T-shirts, carabiners, and hoodies with the Career Center logo on it.

The Career Center sends seniors to the main high schools in the system with presentations to entice rising sophomores and juniors to apply for classes there.

The administrative center was also moved to two buildings previously occupied by HanesBrands north of town off Hanes Mill Road.
