Research & Hands-On Experience

AdvancePath Academics understands non-traditional students require multiple pathways to high school graduation. The goal of every AdvancePath Academies is to provide students not succeeding in traditional classroom settings with an opportunity to obtain academic credit, career exploration activities, vocational work experience, and extended teacher/peer support in an alternative setting that will lead to the earning of a high school diploma. In most settings this includes students who have already dropped out of school or those at high risk of leaving as well as overage middle and high school students who are lagging in their studies.
