COLLEGE CAREER AND MILITARY READINESS (CCMR)
The College, Career, and Military Readiness (CCMR) component of the Student Achievement domain, which helps determine a school district’s annual accountability rating, measures graduates’ preparedness for college, the workforce, or the military. The Student Achievement CCMR denominator includes the previous year's annual graduates, encompassing students who graduate from a district or campus in a school year regardless of cohort. Annual graduates demonstrate college, career, or military readiness in various ways. CCMR focuses on preparing students for life after graduation through a curriculum, resources, programs, and activities designed to provide students with the tools needed to enter college, the workforce, or start a career. Embedded in the everyday culture of our district and supported by state guidelines, CCMR is bolstered by partnerships with higher education organizations and businesses.
