Pathways Home Education Corp

THE HAVEN BY PATHWAYS HOME EDUCATION, A CO-LEARNING CENTER FOR NON-TRADITIONAL LEARNERS. 1) OUR 6 MONTH GOAL OF STUDENT ENROLLMENT WAS AT 150-200 STUDENTS. WE HAVE CHANGED OUR NUMBERS BASED OFF OF OUR EXPERIENCES AND FEEDBACK SINCE WE'VE OPENED THE HAVEN TO ENSURE THAT WE ARE MEETING THE NEEDS OF THE HOMESCHOOL COMMUNITY WE SERVE. OUR FACILITATED CURRICULUM STUDENT NUMBERS ARE AT 55 STUDENTS AND OUR HAVEN STUDENT ENROLLMENT IS AT APPROXIMATELY 40 (9 OF WHICH WE'VE SPONSORED). OUR TOTAL 6 MONTH STUDENT NUMBERS ARE AT: 95 STUDENTS. 2) OUR 6 MONTH GOAL FOR THE HEROES PROGRAM STUDENT VOLUNTEERS WAS AT 15 UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS. WE CURRENTLY HAVE 6 HEROES STUDENTS ACTIVELY VOLUNTEERING AT THE HAVEN. 3) 100% OF STUDENTS GRADUATING WITH PATHWAYS HOME EDUCATION CONTINUE TO HAVE A POST-SECONDARY PLAN. MOST OF THE GRADUATING COHORT ARE SLATED TO COMPLETE BY THE END OF SPRING; HOWEVER, WE DID HAVE ONE INDIVIDUAL THAT COMPLETED IN ADVANCE AND HAS ENTERED THE NURSING PROGRAM AT SAN ANTONIO COLLEGE. 4) THE HAVEN'S 6 AREAS OF EXPLORATION ARE ACTIVELY ALL OF USE AND HIGHLY ENGAGING: MUSIC, ART, STEM, PODCASTING, AND HOME ECONOMICS WAS CHANGED TO "THE FASHION ROOM," SEL IS EMBEDDED THROUGHOUT OUR ACTIVITIES AND LESSONS. OUR ADDED AREA OF EXPLORATION, GARDENING, CURRENTLY CONSISTS OF ORNAMENTAL PLANTS, RYE GRASS FOR OUR MASCOT RABBIT, HONEY, AND PROPAGATING CUTTINGS FROM VARIOUS PLANTS. 5) THE HAVEN'S COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AND COLLABORATION GOAL IN HAVING 10 COMMUNITY SPEAKERS BY MONTH 6 IS A SUCCESS. WE'VE HAD EXACTLY 10 COMMUNITY SPEAKERS SINCE THE DAY WE OPENED INCLUDING OUR RIBBON CUTTING EVENT. SOME EXAMPLES OF COMMUNITY SPEAKERS WE'VE HOSTED ARE STUDENT VOLUNTEER ORGANIZATIONS, PARENT-LED POST-SECONDARY PRESENTATIONS, HISPANIC CHAMBER OF COMMERCE MEET AND GREET, AND ANIMAL EDUCATIONAL EXHIBITS. THE 6 MONTH SERVICE LEARNING PROJECT GOAL OF 3 COMPLETED AND PRESENTED WAS REMOVED. WE HAVE INSTEAD PARTNERED WITH SOS (STUDENTS OF SERVICE) AND REDIRECT OUR STUDENTS TO THEM FOR ALL THEIR COMMUNITY SERVICE NEEDS/MAKE-IT-HAPPEN PROJECTS. SOS HAS ALSO PRESENTED THREE TIMES FOR OUR STUDENTS AND BY SIGNING UP WITH THEM, STUDENTS HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO RECEIVE TRAVEL SCHOLARSHIPS. A GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN ABOUT A LOCAL ISSUE AND APPLY IT IN A GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE. THE GOAL TO PROVIDE OUR SPACE (THE HAVEN) TO 2 OTHER LOCAL NONPROFITS WAS MET. WE PROVIDED THE SPACE TO BRIDGING THE GAP, A LOCAL NETWORKING EVENT TO PROMOTE SMALL BUSINESS ENTREPRENEURS AND THE HISPANIC CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
