Welcome to Jackson Pathways High School
Jackson Public Schools is committed to the success of all children. Our students are not one size fits all, and to that end we have several different programming options to fill the diverse needs of our students. Jackson Pathways is also equipped with renovated safe and secure entryways.
Jackson Pathways will follow a school within a school model providing nontraditional classroom experiences to students who, for a variety of reasons, have struggled to be successful in the traditional classroom.
It is the fundamental goal of the Jackson Pathways program to provide the soft skills necessary to be successful in the workforce or college with an independent career track, exposure, and experience for each child to build the bridge between the learning taking place in the classroom and the workforce.
the PATH to Graduation
Students will follow the Michigan Merit Curriculum as well as additional career and workforce experiential required classes.
