Boston Globe Recognizes Early College Pathways Program

Janichka Jean Nordeus was looking for an opportunity to boost her college credit heading into her junior year last fall at Fenway High School, so she decided to enroll in Wentworth Institute of Technology’s Early College Pathways Program, writes The Boston Globe. 

Jean Nordeus, now enrolled as a first-year student at Wentworth, took part in Beacon Pathways, Wentworth's Early College Pathways Program. The program is an innovative educational partnership between the City of Boston and Wentworth to introduce the college experience to high school students.

The program is among those in which the Commonwealth of Massachusetts is currently investing funding. Read more in the Globe article.
