We are so excited to work with you all this school year in preparation for high school. There will be several steps on this journey to help make informed decisions about high school courses and to create an interest driven Personal Graduation Plan, or PGP.
Please read this PGP Overview Letter to inform you in advance of the steps that we will be taking this school year to prepare for high school. We will continue to share information for you to consider.
We are going to begin with information about Pathways in Technology Early College High School (P-TECH).
