This is the time of year when we at Pathways pause to remember the ways in which our families, teachers, mentors, and friends reach out with a hand, an idea, a suggestion, or an extra five minutes to help us over that next hurdle or through that next exam.  Our students are assisted by dedicated teachers, skilled therapists, creative artists, caring business people, committed service providers, and many more, all working to offer individualized, innovative programming that is academically rigorous and therapeutically supported.  In this issue, read what our students are thankful for: their school community and the opportunity to learn and express themselves in the visual arts, dance, music and much more.  In this time of gratitude and giving, please consider making a generous donation so that our students will continue to thrive, and like Gene D. and so many other Pathways grads go on to step confidently toward their dreams.
