Agua Fria Administrators Shared College and Career Ready Index Measurement Instrument

Administrators from the Agua Fria Union High School District provided an overview of the revisions for the College and Career Ready (CCR) index, a measurement system utilized by the district, designed to help improve students’ ability to be successful after high school.

The CCR is an additional system to the traditional Education and Career Action Plan that is utilized by other public school districts. Guidance counselors are able to more easily identify strengths and weaknesses in a students’ education portfolio, to help guide them to a path of engagement and success.

The revisions included an adjustment to the overall points possible, added participation component, and restrict the point allowance for Honors, IB and AP courses. The index covers a range of components from CTE participation to completing a FAFSA application.

The system is a continuous work in progress that is a collaborative one, including input from administration and principals from within the district to make revisions. It is monitored by district administration to focus on important elements to help make students successful.
