Serves Targeted Student Population

Some CCR programs are open to all students with focus on underrepresented students. With a laser focus on whom we serve, participation in CCR programs reflects the district’s demographics.

High school students work on their early college work.

Reimagined Time & Space

College and Career Readiness works with schools to create master schedules which incorporate impactful courses (AVID, AVID Excel, CTE electives) and work-based learning experiences. CCR also focuses outside of regular school, establishing a robust third (summer) semester.

Systems of Support

CCR effectively serve students, teachers, counselors, and administrators through key structures:

  • Instructional resources and counseling support for students
  • Strategic program implementation and hiring of staff
  • Data-driven decision-making

Our theory of action to build an on-ramp to postsecondary success

By offering innovative programming and helping schools re-think the traditional school day, College & Career Readiness is building an on-ramp to post-secondary success, where students:

 

  1. Successfully participate in Early College, Career Pathways, Work-Based Learning and/or College Preparation Courses
  2. Graduate high school
  3. Earn a college degree
  4. While attending college, work (as necessary) in a career field with potential for advancement
