Education Advanced Expands Pathways to Boost K-12 Graduation Success
As school districts nationwide face growing pressure to boost graduation rates amid increasingly complex requirements, Education Advanced, Inc.—a leading provider of K-12 operational and workflow technology—has enhanced its Pathways solution to help districts better support students on their journey to graduation and beyond.
Graduation pathways are becoming more complex as districts adapt to evolving accountability frameworks, College, Career, and Military Readiness (CCMR) standards, and rising expectations for student support and family involvement. Education leaders are looking for more integrated, transparent tools to track student progress, intervene earlier, and ensure every learner stays on track to earn a diploma.
“Ensuring every student graduates is the ultimate objective, but achieving that requires greater accuracy and insight than ever before,” said Krista Endsley, CEO of Education Advanced, Inc. “Districts need clear visibility and coordinated processes to make sure no student is overlooked. Pathways was designed to simplify this complexity and empower educators throughout the graduation process.”
The emphasis on structured graduation pathways is gaining momentum in Texas, where accountability metrics and CCMR performance significantly impact district success. Nearly 150 districts statewide—including El Paso ISD, Fort Stockton ISD, and Willis ISD—have adopted Pathways to strengthen graduation planning and postsecondary readiness initiatives.
Pathways aligns data, workflows, and communication to support Education Advanced’s mission of enabling student success from enrollment to graduation. Recent enhancements include:
