Summary

District leaders reported preliminary class-of-2025 data showing 76.5% of graduates met at least one college/career/military readiness (CCMR) indicator, surpassing the interim 74% target for 2025. Staff outlined expanded dual-credit, IBC and remediation supports to sustain gains.

Dr. Dina Kornblum, presenting Strategic Plan priority 1.2, told trustees the district's baseline CCMR for the class of 2024 was 62% and the board's five-year goal is to reach 86% by 2030.

She reported preliminary data for the class of 2025: "they are sitting at a 76.5%." Kornblum said that figure exceeds the board's 74% interim target for the class of 2025 and that grade-12 CCMR measures are also up (grade-12 students at 74.8% in preliminary counts). She credited growth to expanded IBCs (industry-based certifications), increased dual-credit participation and cohort advising and outlined next steps including strengthened TSI/TSIA readiness cycles, targeted remediation, Saturday tutorials and stronger dual-credit completion supports.

Trustees asked about how the work is differentiated by campus and about testing and planning-day impacts; Kornblum and school leaders described calibrated walkthroughs, data-driven cohort advising and coach/principal support intended to reduce burden on teachers while improving outcomes.
