Multiple Pathways to Graduation

Portland, Oregon

As part of the 2020 School Improvement Bond, a new Multiple Pathways to Graduation (MPG) building will be constructed on the Benson Polytechnic campus during the three-year modernization of the school. The new 85,000 SF multi-story building will be located in the former Benson parking lot at the corner of NE Glisan and 16th Avenue. PPS Multiple Pathways to Graduation (MPG) programs will include Alliance at Benson and Meek, DART/Clinton, Teen Parent Childcare, Teen Parent Services and Reconnection Services and Center.

The new MPG building will include a 500-seat gym, makerspace and host a number of CTE programs including Automotive, Manufacturing, Culinary, and Digital Media. This proposed LEED Gold building will create an environment that fully supports the diverse and specific needs of MPG programs and students.

Workforce Diversity Programs that Alliant is participating in for the project include Benson High School career learning opportunities for students and Workforce training and hiring program with PPS.
