New York State Multiple Pathways to Graduation
The Multiple pathways options recognize the importance of engaging students in rigorous and relevant academic programs, while providing them choices geared towards their interests. The regulations approved in 2015 and 2016 recognize students’ interests in the Arts, World Languages, Business and Career and Technical Education (CTE), Career Development and Occupational Studies (CDOS), Humanities, and Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) by allowing an approved pathway to meet students’ graduation requirements. Under the “4+1” pathway assessment option, students must take and pass four required Regents Exams or Department-Approved Alternative assessments (one in each of the following subjects: English language arts, mathematics, science, and social studies) and complete a comparably rigorous pathway to meet the fifth assessment requirement for graduation.
At Guilderland High School, we offer 3 NYSED approved CTE Pathway Programs and opportunities to earn a CDOS credential as a pathway for graduation. CTE and CDOS Graduation Pathway Information Career and Technical Education (CTE) Pathway:
