Pathways to the Future (June 2025)

Students in the Criminal Investigations course at Bloomington High School are diving into the world of law enforcement with hands-on experience and real-world scenarios. From analyzing evidence to solving mock cases, these students are sharpening their investigative skills and building a strong foundation for future careers in criminal justice.

Check out this month’s Pathways to the Future to see these future detectives in action!

Students from across the district are participating in CRY-ROP’s new Nursing Assistant–Certified (NA-C) summer program, hosted at Redlands East Valley High School. Running from June 16 through August 11, the program combines on-campus instruction with clinical rotations. Upon successful completion and passing of the State certification exam, students will be eligible to become certified Nursing Assistants—gaining a strong head start in the healthcare field.

Please be advised that the date for the Back-to-School In-Service has been updated.

Due to adjustments in our partnering school districts’ calendars, the new in-service date is now scheduled for:

Monday, July 28, 2025

Please make sure to mark your calendars with this new date!

Thank you for your flexibility and understanding.

We're excited to introduce our 2025 TIP Mentors:

Crystal Hickey, Mary Hernandez, Alexis Tygart!

These experienced educators are here to support and guide our new teachers through their first 2 years, offering insight, encouragement, and real-world classroom strategies. Get to know the mentors who are helping shape the future of CTE instruction!

We asked each mentor:

If you could give your first-year-teacher self one piece of advice—using only three words—

what would it be?

Here’s what they had to say:

The CRY-ROP Educational Foundation, Inc. enriches the experience of Career Technical Education students by serving as a catalyst and funding source for promoting and celebrating education success, encouraging lifelong learning, and contributing to students’ future career and educational goals. Funds raised through the Educational Foundation go directly to funding student award scholarships, which are presented at the annual Evening of Excellence.
