College and Career Readiness Practices Cards and Overview

This set of cards provides college & career readiness practices that support communities where all students deserve a future shaped by possibility. These practices:

• Give high school juniors and seniors step-by-step guidance toward a financially and socially rewarding future, whether that’s through college, career, or a path uniquely their own

• Dismantle limiting beliefs, including the idea that future planning only happens in the counselor’s office

• Give every student and educator a team they can trust – and turn opportunity from a privilege to a promise

• Open doors for students often overlooked in postsecondary planning, promoting opportunity for every student
