Tools for College and Career Readiness

October 25, 2012

The series will connect the transition-related indicators of Pennsylvania’s State Performance Plan for Special Education (Indicators 1, 2, 5, 8, 13, and 14) with the goal that every student graduates from high school ready for college or career, and achieves high standards. The series will include content on the individual planning process as well as the broad picture of transition within the context of general education and college and career readiness. Special emphasis will be given to the role of assessment, partnerships with parents and other stakeholders, and student involvement in the transition process. A foundational tool for the series is the Self-Assessment of Current Transition Practices, which guide leaders and their teams to use multiple sources of data to identify program strengths and areas for growth.
