Over nearly nine years, Spring Lake Park High School’s Career and College pathways have grown to 37 courses across three high-demand job sectors. In the most recent graduating class, 92 percent of students had taken at least one course. These pathways to career exploration are strong, and a project is underway to keep them that way.
