Indiana’s current graduation requirements are over four decades old and do not align with today’s job market. Bright Pathways Indiana advocates for updating these requirements and diplomas to reflect the skills and knowledge needed for modern careers.
Many students feel unprepared for post-secondary decisions. We push for personalized educational paths that cater to individual interests and career goals, ensuring students see the value in their high school education and are well-equipped for their futures.
We believe in the value of learning outside traditional classrooms. Bright Pathways Indiana supports incorporating work-based experiences and apprenticeships into the high school curriculum and some diploma typesto provide practical, hands-on training.
While many students aim for higher education, not all follow through. We advocate for pathways that include technical schools, apprenticeships, and military service, recognizing the diverse career goals of Indiana students.
