Help Your Student Build Confidence and Direction Early
Your child’s path to college starts sooner than you might think. The Pathfinder Program is designed for 8th and early 9th graders who are just beginning to think about their future. This stage is all about exploration — discovering interests, building study skills, and learning what colleges value most. Starting now means less stress later and more opportunities for your student to shine.

Why It Matters
By starting early, your child gains clarity, confidence, and purpose. Instead of waiting until junior year to catch up, they’ll move through high school with a plan — knowing which classes, activities, and habits will set them apart.
Give your child a head start on success.
