ASA STEAM PATHWAYS

5 Distinct STEAM Pathways

One of ASA’s missions is to offer STEAM paths, from which each student can select the one they intend to pursue. These paths are designed to provide both career and college readiness, enabling students to seamlessly transition into degree programs, thereby reducing the time needed to obtain a college degree.

Furthermore, these programs are structured to equip students with skills that allow them to enter the industry workforce immediately while concurrently pursuing their college education, or alternatively, to embark on internships or apprenticeships.

Students will enroll in a single class during each semester throughout their four years of high school. These STEAM programs will receive accreditation as dual credit through our University partners, granting students both a 2-year college degree and a high school diploma upon completion.
