On March 15, College Possible Minnesota and Rochester Public Schools signed a new Navigate partnership which offers free, personalized support to a group of Rochester Public Schools Online High School students. This program supports students in gaining access to postsecondary education pathways through researching best-fit colleges, identifying funding sources, and supplying resources to help students thrive as they pursue degree completion.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Rochester Public Schools as our newest Navigate partner,” says BG Tucker, College Possible Minnesota’s Senior Director of Programs. “Their commitment to education and prioritization of student needs aligns with our mission to provide an innovative and individualized approach to college access and success. By working in partnership with the counselors at Rochester Public Schools Online, we aim to enrich the educational experience for students and empower them to succeed in their post-secondary pursuits. Together, we’re excited to increase college access and support for Rochester students.”
As a Navigate partner, Rochester Public Schools and College Possible Minnesota will match eligible students with a trained, tech-connected near-peer coach and an intensive curriculum designed to help students overcome the most common barriers to getting into college and completing their degree — all at no cost to students or their families.
