Facilitation Guide: Developing Flexible Pathways Profiles at the Local Level

The purpose of the Pathways Profile tool is to assist schools and LEAs in developing, improving upon, and communicating Flexible Pathway opportunities that are effective, equitable, compliant, and safe. It is not intended to be a checklist, but rather a robust tool for teams to evaluate how they implement procedures, practices, and processes for Flexible Pathways consistent with Vermont’s Education Quality Standards, and foster transparency with students, staff, families, and the community.
