THE PATHWAYS
ADVANTAGE
Pathways gave me clarity and helped me see how my passions connect to my future.
I grew as a leader through ASB, Girls Lead, and countless opportunities to speak up. I gained meaningful field experience that helped develop skills that continue to shape my path.
“
Because of Pathways, I was introduced to course rigor and expectations similar to what I would experience in college. As a student in the Medical Pathway, I learned the importance of using my voice and the benefit of reaching out to others, especially when looking for internships related to my field of interest, veterinary medicine. With the help of faculty running the Pathways program, I was able to develop confidence in myself and realize the importance of asking for help, especially when pursuing experiences that may be challenging but beneficial in creating progress.”
