Haverhill High School was awarded $50,000 Thursday to continue its Innovation Career Pathways programs that provide students with hands-on learning experiences and opportunities to explore careers in high-demand STEM fields and other growing industries.

Last May, Haverhill High School’s Graphic Design and Visual Communications program was designated an Innovation Career Pathway by the state Department of Elementary and Secondary Education.

The sum was among $4.7 million statewide in implementation and continuation grants to help schools sustain and strengthen existing programs this school year.

This school year, more than 8,500 students are enrolled in 303 Innovation Career Pathways at 130 high schools, representing nearly 36% of eligible high schools across Massachusetts. Through these programs, students explore careers, take advanced coursework and gain real-world experience through internships and work-based learning.
