Faribault High School took a major step forward in our Pathways of Excellence with the addition of a seven-period schedule and new online course offerings for students.  After working through the planning phase for several years and earning the support of the community, we can now begin implementing an additional 20-plus courses for students. 

The pathway model, which is based on successful programs at Shakopee High School and Alexandria High School, will offer students a sequence of classes in one of four main pathways:

  • Engineering and Manufacturing
  • Business and Technology
  • Health and Human Services
  • Agriculture

Embedded within those pathways are mini-pathways for students who want more course options in areas like science, the arts and education This will be the first year of the pathway model at Faribault High School and students will be fully immersed in the model over the next two to three years as all of the pathways classes are phased in. We’re also very excited to begin offering online courses starting this fall through our new program called Falcon Online. FHS will be partnering with Edgenuity to offer students the capability to be both an on-campus student and an online student.
