Abstract	The "Good News" about academic and CTE integration in Kentucky, says ACTE in its position paper "Reinventing the American High School for the 21st Century," is that the state has developed 10 interdisciplinary courses that allow students to meet requirements for academic courses by taking classes that carefully merge academic standards with career-oriented content. One of the "good news" high schools in Kentucky is Corbin High School, a high school that is located in Kentucky's Southeastern portion of the Appalachia Mountains. Due to the scarcity of jobs in the area, the school's principal, Joyce Phillips, instituted the High Schools That Work model of reform. In this article, the author explains the goals of the model and its mechanism. (Contains 4 photographs.) (ERIC).
