Pathways School - Crossland Re-Entry is a program which provides
academic, therapeutic, and transition services for up to thirty high
school students, male or female, with emotional disabilities in order
to facilitate the student's integration into classrooms at Crossland
High School. Primary consideration is given to students who
are applying for admission from The Pathways Schools' Springville
Re-Entry program. Crossland Re-Entry staff work closely with
Springville Re-Entry staff to ensure the transition success of eligible
