For us, it is about preparing students for the future.”  \n-Dr. John E. Chapman III CFBISD Superintendent of Schools  \n“The vision of the CCMR department is for all K-12 students to graduate high school prepared fora college, career, or military path of their choice and empowered to be competent, productive members of society.”  \n-Jo Gillen  \nChief ofSEL and Postsecondary Readiness  \nDear CFBISD Middle School Students and Parents  \nA student must consider many factors when thinking about their future: personal talents and interests, required coursework and training, labor market demands, awareness of college and career options, interpersonal skill development, and family and lifestyle goals are just a few examples. We believe that learning empowers students to put these factors together to reach their full potential, reach their goals, and achieve their definition of success. Students have many options for high-demand, livable-wage jobs through a wide range of continued education and career development paths, but knowing where to start or what happens next can be a challenge to navigate as workforce and postsecondary education choices continue to evolve.  \nImproving initiatives to prepare students for postsecondary success is the focus of the College, Career and Military Readiness Department, and this guide serves as a reference as you and your student explore and plan for their life after high school. CCMR staff and school counselors are available for support and guidance in postsecondary planning; we also hope you will review the CFBISD College, Career and Military Readiness website for information and attend as many district and campus events this year that interest you.
