From High Tech’s Welding Shop to Ironworking the Garden State

In honor of CTE Month, we are proud to highlight High Tech alum Julian Zuleta, Class of 2020, a powerful example of how our CTE programs prepare students for innovative careers.

While at High Tech, Julian majored in Metal/Welding Technology, where he built a strong foundation in fabrication, structural welding, blueprint reading, and hands-on technical skills. Today, Julian is part of the Ironworkers Local 11 Apprenticeship Program and works with A&R Fence and Guiderail as an ironworker, building and reinforcing the structures that keep our communities safe and connected.

His journey reflects the strength of our CTE programs through hands-on learning, industry-aligned training, and clear pathways that lead directly from classroom to career.

We are proud to celebrate alumni like Julian who continue to grow, lead, and make a lasting impact in their field.
