District says CCMR at ~97% for class of 2025, warns indicator changes will affect future cohorts
Summary
Dr. Jackson told the board Cedar Hill's CCMR (college, career, military readiness) internal estimate for the cohort is about 97% for the class affecting 2026 accountability and explained the state will remove College Bridge as an indicator for future cohorts, prompting planning on dual credit and graduation‑plan changes.
Dr. Jackson presented the district's progress on the board's Goal 3: increasing seniors meeting CCMR benchmarks. She said the board's baseline used class of 2024 (80%) and that the district's internal tracking for the class of 2025 was about 97% for CCMR indicators used in accountability calculations.
Dr. Jackson said state rule changes will remove Texas College Bridge as a CCMR indicator for the class of 2027, noting "over 50% of our kids use at least 1 part of Texas College Bridge," and warned that the district must expand other pathways such as dual credit and pathway completion. She said staff will propose graduation‑plan adjustments and more dual‑credit options so students not in collegiate pathways still have routes to CCMR points.
Trustees asked for clarification about OnRamps and industry‑based certification (IBC) metrics. Dr. Jackson explained the difference between IBC pass rates and the IBC+pathway combination that counts for CCMR, which accounted for some differences in presented documents. She also said the district is integrating college‑readiness instruction earlier (as early as sixth grade) and will provide planning scenarios for new CCMR targets.
