At Pathways, we strive to provide a caring, family-like environment for every child.
Our teachers know each student's background, family, strengths, and weaknesses, and spend enough individual time with them to know how they learn best and put those techniques to work in the classroom.
We are also dedicated to providing life skills for each child that will challenge them and teach skills they will need in the future.
At Pathways School, our curriculum is based on the premise that children learn in different ways.
Since Pathways opened in 1996, the goal of our dedicated staff has been to provide a safe and family-like atmosphere for students who may not fit the mold of the typical student in a traditional school.
Our teachers tailor their curriculum to educate students in the manner in which they learn best.
