Beginning in the 2017–18 school year, The Academies of Pleasure Ridge Park will begin to rotate students throughout Pathway electives to gain exposure to programs prior to declaring a major. Then, at the end of their freshman year, students will choose a Pathway to follow for the rest of their high school career and possibly gain certification in their field of study.

The Pathways include the Academies of Business and Communication, Medical Sciences, and Engineering/Manufacturing/Design.
