LSC, GREATER LAFAYETTE COMMERCE FIND NEW PATH TO GRADUATION

Lafayette schools, backed by Greater Lafayette Commerce, Ivy Tech Community College and dozens of local companies, will be the first in the state this May to offer students a path to a diploma through job-based training and exploration, local officials announced this week.

Dubbed Career+, the locally created graduation pathway will focus on lining up high school students with skills aimed at jobs straight out of school in health care, advanced manufacturing and supply-chain/logistics fields in Greater Lafayette.

Lafayette Jefferson High School will play lead, but the Career+ diploma will be available, starting this year, in schools in 11 school corporations in and surrounding Tippecanoe County, after approval by the Indiana Department of Education earlier in January.
