What does college and career ready mean in elementary school?

College Ready: A college ready student is an academically prepared student, ready for postsecondary education or training without the need for remedial coursework. Whether you are pursuing a four-year degree or studying for a skilled trade license being ready means having the reading, writing, mathematics, social and cognitive skills to qualify for and succeed in the academic program of your choice.

Career Ready: A career ready student possesses both the necessary knowledge and technical skills needed for employment in their desired career field. For example, a student who is ready to become a teacher not only possesses knowledge of education policy but also possesses all required certifications necessary to become a teacher.

Ultimately, college and career readiness demands students know more than just content. They also need to demonstrate that they know how to learn and build upon that content to solve problems. They must develop versatile communication skills, work collaboratively and work competitively in a school or work environment. Ensuring that you possess both the academic and technical know-how necessary for a career beyond the classroom is a great step toward succeeding on whatever path you choose.

Here are some fun questions talk with your child about? Monday: College- Where did you go to college? What was your favorite choose that school? Career- What did you want to be when you were young? Tuesday: College- What was your major/minor? What was your favorite class? Career- What made you decide to go into your current field? Wednesday: College-What activities were you involved in during college? Did you work during college? Career- What skill has been most valuable to you in your career? Where did you learn that skill? Thursday: College- Talk about daily college life (where you lived, class schedule, studying, fun activities). Career-Is continuous learning an important part of what you do? Why? How do you continue to learn? Friday: College- What are some of the traditions at your college? What was the mascot? Career-What is the most satisfying part of your career?
