Career and College Readiness for Life Beyond High School

Students are more than a score!  

They are more than the number they earn on a standardized test.  Omaha Public Schools strives to provide students with rigorous academic programs, personalized and career-specific learning experiences and social and emotional skills that prepare them to be global citizens in an ever-changing world.  The scores on a standardized test are only one of many potential indicators that demonstrate readiness for life beyond high school. 

Students learn in a variety of ways, and therefore students should demonstrate readiness in a variety of ways. 

Career Center looks beyond standardized test scores and uses 6 benchmark measures to assess and demonstrate student readiness to succeed in life beyond high school!
