Oak Grove High School Business & Marketing Program Spotlight The Business & Marketing program at Oak Grove High School is off to an incredible start this credentialing season! Our Marketing Credential Wall is quickly filling up with student names, certifications, and success stories—turning the hallway into a true celebration of achievement. Students are earning industry-recognized credentials in platforms such as Microsoft Office Specialist (Word, PowerPoint, Excel), Adobe Photoshop and Premiere Pro, and Social Media Marketing. Each certification represents a major milestone toward College and Career Readiness Indicators (CCRIs) and helps students graduate credentialed, confident, and career-ready. This visual display has created a wave of excitement throughout campus! Students are stopping by to celebrate their peers’ success, ask how to get certified themselves, and learn more about how Career Technical Education (CTE) connects classroom learning with real-world career pathways.
