The Education Pathway program is excited to kick off another year with our area partnering schools. This week we are happy to feature Amboy High School and the work they are doing to promote career exploration!
Amboy Schools will be hosting a college & career fair on October 18th from 8:00-11:30am at Amboy High School.

This week we are happy to feature Fulton High School.
Fulton High School hopes to have 4 students graduating with an endorsement in the education pathway at the end of the 21-22 school year.

This week, we are excited to feature Morrison High School.
Mrs. Jennifer Stevenson shares several of her class goals. " For the first time ever, a student is taking Introduction to Education Careers for the second time. My goal is to make this class more representative of student teaching, putting the student in a placement for a semester at a time instead of switching, and implementing a more in-depth curriculum with her regarding aspects of teaching and working with students". Great job, Mrs. Stevenson and good luck to the students at Morrison High School!
The Education Pathway program is excited to kick off another year with our area partnering schools. Last year, 4 area high school students earned an endorsement in the education pathway; getting one step closer to earning a college degree in education!
With the recent shortage of educators, this work has proven to be vital in our area.
This year, the pathway program will provide opportunities for more students to work towards earning endorsements in education. With increased community awareness of the pathway program, families can stay informed on how to best support their student while pursuing an education endorsement.
