ONLY 30% OF OUR STUDENTS WILL BE

GOING TO HEAVEN

HEAVEN=COLLEGE

Only way to success is to go to college

Only 32% will earn a postsecondary degree or credential within 6 years of graduating from high school

Only 40% of Americans earn an associate’s or bachelor’s degree by age 27

By the year 2018 55% OF JOBS IN INDIANA WILL REQUIRE POSTSECONDARY EDUCATION

Only 1/3 of those jobs in Indiana will require a 4 year degree

Over 1/3 of jobs in Indiana will require postsecondary work with less than a 4 year degree

WHEN WE INSIST ALL STUDENTS GO TO A FOUR YEAR COLLEGE, TOO MANY GET LOST ALONG THE WAY. WILLIAM C. SYMONDS

WHERE ARE THE REST OF “THEM” GOING?

“College for All” needs to be broadened to mean a meaningful “post-high school credential” for all or

A meaningful credential can be earned in many ways:

Community colleges/ Technical College with 2 year associates degrees or working to get into a 4 year college

Apprenticeships/Certifications

The military/community service

Four year college

COLLEGE AND CAREER PATHWAYS

We need to offer young people in high school multiple

pathways to success, instead of putting so much

emphasis on attending a four-year college.

Students should have a ready access to a clearly

delineated set of pathways to major occupations, so that

both students and their families can know which classes

and experiences would help a student interested in a

career field gain access to it.

CHOOSING A COLLEGE OR CAREER

PATHWAY

Anderson High School College and Career Plan

Cluster: Transportation Pathway: Automotive Technology Repair

Core 40 with Honors - High School Graduation Plan

A student will be exposed to College and Career Pathway options during the required Preparing for College and Careers course during his/her Freshman year. At this time, the student

should choose an initial Pathway to start with; however, a student can enter or exit a pathway at any time during his/her high school years. The pathway is designed to help students

make relevant choices when scheduling for the next school year. It is always best to consult a counselor for the best advice for which courses to take when given an option.
