Postsecondary Readiness
Policies Along the Path from High School to College and Careers

February 27, 2020  — Students need a smooth path from the middle grades into high school, and then on to college, technical education programs and careers. How are states aligning their policies to make this happen?

An online tool<https://nam05.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsreb.us4.list-manage.com%2Ftrack%2Fclick%3Fu%3Dc67c5841e2df804cf1c9ea093%26id%3D3609569a62%26e%3D2bda7894f1&data=01%7C01%7Celisa.jaden%40sreb.org%7C4140eb15ada44143744f08d7bb903eec%7Ceb20950b168c497a98452b099844f3ef%7C0&sdata=Y9tjADUf1PAp38g3%2FhCKEuOjGzjXLB3nelY9lpxIz9c%3D&reserved=0> from SREB details policies across this spectrum so government and education leaders can compare across state lines, identify barriers where requirements don't align, and find ideas to improve access and equity for all students. The report shows how states have included readiness in their assessment and accountability systems, aligned high school graduation and college admission requirements, and offered more college and career planning.

"What's next, after high school?" asks SREB President Stephen Pruitt. "Each student should see a clear system of on- and off-ramps that allows them to pursue their dreams.”
