Q: Once I choose a pathway must I remain in that pathway for all 4 years at MHS?
Q: Once I choose a pathway must I remain in that pathway for all 4 years at MHS?
A: While this is encouraged, it's not required. However, to receive a pathway endorsement you must complete all 4 course levels of your identified pathway. Keep in mind that if a student elects to shift to another pathway, the pathway completion requirement remains the same (i.e. complete all 4 levels of coursework) if said student is looking to achieve a specific pathway endorsement. If you are an out of district student and you choose to dis-enroll from the CTE program completely, you will be required to return to your sending district.
