Career and college readiness course
The purpose of the CCR is to assist our seniors as they prepare for post-secondary education. Many of the seniors will be taking the SAT again in the fall as well as starting the process of applying to colleges, technical schools, or trade schools. The new accountability system uses a school’s SAT scores to determine the school’s standing much as the AYP system used DCAS scores. The goal of the course is to support our students by providing them with a time and place to focus on their educational future.
During the first marking period, 30 minutes of each day will be spent on SAT review/prep. The remainder of the block lesson plan uses the AVID curriculum for the senior year as its basis. Students will engage in activities directly connected to the application process. They will also do career exploration. You should modify activates to be more appropriate for students going to trade/technical school.
