MEFA Pathway School Spotlight

SeaCoast High School

Congratulations to SeaCoast High School for their engagement with MEFA Pathway during the first semester of school year 2019-20. SeaCoast High School is an alternative school located in Revere that provides a comprehensive curriculum and support for at-risk students. Offering a wide array of programs, including vocational and technical training, work-study, and preparation for college, SeaCoast High School is preparing students for post-secondary success. As one of our new affiliate schools, SeaCoast High School has embraced MEFA Pathway as their premier resource for college and career planning. At a recent student registration and utilization drive, students were excited to learn about the resources MEFA Pathway has to offer:

“I liked the workshop because MEFA Pathway helped me find what I might want to study once I go to college.”

“Wow! I can build a resume just by putting in my information.”

“This is a good way to organize and to stay on track.”

Currently, counselors, social workers, and interns are using MEFA Pathway collaboratively with students. Moving forward, the goal will be to have all advisory teachers using the resources available in MEFA Pathway to help guide students towards their own unique paths and goals. Great start, SeaCoast High School—keep up the momentum!

“MEFA Pathway is an excellent tool. It's been a great resource to our students as they navigate the college admissions process. We always get great feedback from our students. Some of the features they like are searching colleges and majors, college comparison, and learning about different careers. The resume builder and scholarship search are especially helpful for the students. The website is user-friendly and easy to navigate. Jennifer Bento-Pinyoun and the entire MEFA staff have gone above and beyond to assist and support our school. We can't say enough about this great organization!”
