Building A College Going Culture
-
There are nine interrelated elements that together help schools build and strengthen a college-going culture. The nine elements are:
- College Talk
- Clear Expectations
- Information and Resources
- Comprehensive Counseling Model
- Testing and Curriculum
- Faculty Involvement
- Family Involvement
- College Partnerships
- Articulation
In order to set goals for your individual campus you must first:
- Inventory and assess present activities and challenges
- Agree on a few (one or three) of the nine college-going elements to work on
- Establish a few goals for the year under each college-going element
- Develop an action implementation plan for each goal
Remember: start with doable goals and know who on your campus is trained to assist CCMR
