Top 5 Things to Know About Stride Career Prep


Learning outside the classroom. Skills for a lifetime.

At Stride Career Prep, students get exposure to project-based learning, or PBL. PBL helps students to develop crucial problem-solving skills that they’ll take with them into their career, and into adulthood in general.

With project-based learning activities, students are tasked with solving realistic problems that are similar to those they’ll encounter on job sites after high school. And by focusing on collaboration, students get exposure to teamwork required for success in the workplace.

What is project-based learning?
