Through our Multiple Education and Employment Pathways Initiative (Multiple Pathways), Commonwealth Corporation actively supports efforts across the state to decrease dropout rates, increase graduation rates and help young people prepare to be successful in a 21st Century economy.

While Massachusetts leads the nation in educational improvement, reform and student performance, there are still too many youth who are not achieving success. Persistent achievement gaps for a significant number of Massachusetts' youth have not yet been closed.

From its many years of experience, Commonwealth Corporation recognizes that our communities need to create pathways systems locally in order to address the needs of our youth. One size does not fit all, and thus the need for multiple pathways.
