Polk Education Pathways

Who Are We?

Polk Education Pathways is offered by Polk County Public Schools as a way to help adult students find their own path, the right path, to the career they’re looking for.

Navigating your education can sometimes be a winding and confusing road – especially when life throws a few curve balls. You may find yourself asking: What is the right school for me? Where do I start? Does the school I can afford get me the career I want? Is it worth it?

You’re in luck! Affordable, local education is right around the corner, and it’s been serving Polk County for over 50 years!

AFFORDABLE

We offer affordable solutions to students looking for debt-free educational options. Call an adviser to find out more about our low tuition rates and financial aid.
