Counselors report early gains after CaliforniaColleges platform rollout; nearly 80% of students logged in
Summary
Counseling staff said the district has onboarded CaliforniaColleges (CCGI), enabling students to build career profiles, launch UC/CSU applications from the platform and access financial aid resources; nearly 80% of students had logged in to date.
District counselors updated the board on CaliforniaColleges implementation and how the platform is being used to support college and career planning.
Counseling staff emphasized three platform functions: a career interest profiler, a college search and direct launching of UC/CSU/CSU applications and a financial aid and FAFSA resource hub. "Nearly 80% of our students have had at least 1 login," a counselor reported, and staff said they are targeting 100% next year through classroom lessons and counselor outreach.
Presenters described integrations with Aeries and the platform's multi-language support for families. Counselors noted implementation challenges early in the rollout and said the district will continue classroom presentations, parent outreach and technical alignment with ARIES and partner colleges.
