Pathways Academy of Technology and Design Reviews
Rating 3.86 out of 5 115 reviews
Pathways was instrumental in the current success that I experience in college. They had a large emphasis on internships for all their students and actively try to push all students to get at least one internship. I've had an internship all four years. The experience of getting into the workforce and learning workplace culture and adjusting to the environment early on allowed me to filter out what I like and dislike about companies. This means that when I look for a job, I know what questions to ask in interviews and in job searches to make the best decision and to thrive and be the best that I can in my respective field.
Pathways isn't just a regular high school. Its focused on mainly technology and design classes, like video game design, photography, 3-D printing, etc. It's a great school that intrigues their students into STEM fields. There are paid internships that are offered at pathways also but being apart of the pathways community isn't just about good grades and STEM careers, it's also about meeting tons of different people around from neighboring towns, and friends turn into family there. Plus the staff is great.
I go to Pathways Academy of Technology and Design, this high school projected itself as a great magnet school that’ll get students on their way to success in STEM fields. They offer technology courses with design elements still ingrained in them; such as creating games or websites through Programming, 3-D Printing in Advanced Manufacturing, or Digital Media and Digital Photography classes where students use Macs and the Adobe Suite to create works of art, or into interviews that the school has set up for us through our Early-work experience program, where students can apply, interview, and work for corporate or local companies partnered with the school. Such as, Pratt & Whitney, Stanley Black and Decker, Travelers, The Hartford, and American Eagle Financial Credit Union. I was exposed to all of this during my time at Pathways and without this great school I probably wouldn’t have stepped back into an entrepreneurial mindset.
