We are excited share an opportunity offered by Pathways for high school Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors currently or previously in foster care (note: students would have had to been in foster care for at least one day on or after their 14th birthday)! Pathways College and Career Readiness Program is a program meant to provide tips and tricks to help students figure out their next steps after high school, whether they’re considering college, starting a career, or even joining the military. Best of all, students get to decide what sessions they want to attend—it’s a “choose your own adventure” experience!
What students will get through Pathways College and Career Readiness Program:
Customizable Sessions: Students will pick the events that interest them. Each one-hour session will focus on different pathways, such as college preparation, career exploration, or military options.
Earn While You Learn: For every session students attend, they’ll receive a $25 gift card (up to 3 sessions).
Complete the Curriculum: Once students attend 3 sessions, they’ll complete the program for their grade level and receive an additional $25 bonus gift card!
Continue Learning: Students can attend as many sessions as they want to gain even more knowledge, but the bonus $25 is only offered once.
If you have students that are interested in participating, here are two events they can attend to gain more information:
Finding Your Path: What’s Next After High School?
An introduction to post-high school options, covering college, career, and military pathways, helping students understand the broad landscape of possibilities.
Date/Time/Location: Wednesday, September 25 - 5-6 pm - Virtual
We look forward to seeing you at the sessions and helping you get ready for life after high school!Register here: www.tinyurl.com/PathwaysFS1
