You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 34.227.0.0/16 has been blocked by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 11:46, 23 November 2025. Your current IP address is 34.227.114.28.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

== School ==
In order to graduate, students must take at least three years of a [[Career Program|shop class]] in addition to their core classes.  Students can select from a wide variety of shops such as [[cosmetology]], [[automotive technology]], [[Police|criminal enforcement]], and [[Computing|computer technology]].

Students must also complete a WSCTC Experience Project, with career and technical related job topics presented like a [[Career portfolio|portfolio]].

== WSCTC Programs ==
West Side Career & Technology Center offers a wide selection of fully accredited academic courses. These courses will meet all requirements for high school graduation. In addition, the school also has advanced academic courses to meet the requirement for those students who are moving on to post secondary education.

West Side CTC also has fifteen Career & Technology programs to choose from. These programs represent business and technology; skilled trades and courses that offer an advanced start to post secondary training.

The [[Co-operative education]] program offers students an opportunity to gain real world work experience while still in high school. Many local employers hire the students because of the highly skilled and highly trained employees. In some situations, the high school co-op jobs lead to well paying, full-time jobs, upon high school graduation.

The sports programs at West Side CTC were cut due to a budget shortfall.<ref>((cite web|url=http://www.piaa.org/schools/directory/details.aspx?ID=11083/|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110716104129/http://www.piaa.org/schools/directory/details.aspx?ID=11083%2F|archivedate=2011-07-16|title=PIAA.org|accessdate=2009-01-05|url-status=dead))</ref>

== Controversy ==
((Unreferenced section|date=March 2018))

In the past, The Wyoming Valley West School district adopted a dress code, and soon after WSCTC also adopted a similar dress code.  Not long after, the two representatives from Wyoming Valley West wanted more control over the WSCTC school board, as most of the students and funding comes from the WVW school district.  It was said that if they did not get the control they wanted, they would pull out of WSCTC's partnership and discontinue sending their students, as well as discontinuing funding.  This caused an uproar from the students and parents, because they were concerned their children would not receive the education they are entitled to by U.S. Law.  A protest of students, parents, and alumni was held at a school board meeting, and soon after things did not work out in WVW's favor.

Wyoming Valley West has since decided to rejoin the JOC due to the extreme overpayment to the tech center.
