1 Navigating Central Ohio s College & Career Readiness System... and Beyond Districts, schools and institutions of higher education fostering college and career readiness, NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
2 Navigating Central Ohio s College and Career Readiness System builds on a college readiness assets report first released by the Central Ohio College and Career Success Network in April 0. NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
3 This updated report reflects significant changes on Ohio s education landscape during the past three years: A new College Credit Plus program designed to enhance students readiness and postsecondary success A more rigorous high school curriculum (Ohio s New Learning Standards) Statewide Uniform Remediation Free Standards and higher education s performance-based funding formulas Support for a bachelor s degree earned in three years NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
4 Our objectives today.... Discuss College Credit Plus s goals. Report on our findings about the implementation of College Credit Plus (as of spring 05) 3. Offer recommendations for a systemic approach to implementing and supporting College Credit Plus and to increasing in postsecondary NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
5 PART I. College Credit Plus Replaces the state s previous Postsecondary Enrollment Option (PSEO) and redefines alternative dual enrollment programs as advanced standing programs Goals of the initiative:. Reduce the cost of postsecondary education for students and families. Improve access to and the availability of dual credit opportunities NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
6 College Credit Plus is designed to: expand in dual credit opportunities among all student demographic populations create a transparent dual credit funding system offer courses that are meaningful for students ensure the academic integrity of college-level courses when taught in the high school by a high school teacher make sure that parents and students receive comprehensive and consistent communication regarding dual credit opportunities and requirements NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
7 Benefits of dual credit... It gives students an introduction to what full-time college coursework will be like. It allows students to take classes that aren t offered at their high schools. It is a proven cure for senioritis and builds a collegegoing environment within the high school. College courses can give students a closer look at their area of academic interest. (continued on next slide) NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
8 Taking a college-level course is another option for students who don t opt for AP courses, or for students whose high schools don t make AP courses available. Dual credit allows students to start accumulating college credits, helping them graduate on time while reducing the cost of college. NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
9 What we heard... There doesn t appear to be any serious resistance to College Credit Plus among those responsible for implementing it. People understand College Credit Plus and they want it to succeed. Some wonder if a new statewide directive is needed given their existing dual credit offerings. Implementers have concerns about how their efforts will be measured. (continued on next slide) NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
10 School and college personnel have a range of questions about how to implement College Credit Plus and they are curious about how others are addressing the issues that perplex them. Capacity is a serious issue because there is so much to do and so little time to do NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
11 Criteria for emerging practices of promise. Creating an effective high-school/ihe partnership. Offering courses that help students achieve degrees and certificates 3. Increasing teachers knowledge and credentials 4. Monitoring student readiness and quality of instruction and coursework 5. Offering advising services at high schools and IHEs 6. Communicating effectively with parents and students 7. Serving all demographic student groups NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
12 Some emerging practices of promise... Hilliard City Schools and South-Western City School District centralized services Marysville s Early College High School unique program to prepare students for college and careers Dublin City Schools a series of College and Career Academies Columbus City Schools a partnership with DeVry Advantage Academy (continued on next slide) NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
13 Whitehall City Schools a 5-hour Health Information Management pathway The Ohio State University a number of niche partnerships with specific schools and cohorts of students Central Ohio Technical College and Columbus State Community College comprehensive high school partnerships to meet students pathway needs The Charles School at Ohio Dominican University innovative five-year Early College High School with ODU Educational Service Center of Central Ohio guided the brokering of a single agreement for program cost NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
14 Six observations about accelerated. K- and higher education personnel responsible for implementing College Credit Plus have worked diligently to prepare for the program s launch.. One-size-fits-all solutions are not the answer when it comes to giving more young people postsecondary opportunities. 3. Small districts do not have the economy of scale that permits larger districts to build expanded postsecondary opportunities for a large number of students and multiple school campuses. NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
15 4. Schools and districts have been trying to implement on the fly as they have searched for higher education partners, built partnerships, resolved curriculum issues, set up advising systems, built faculty resources (often without an adequate infrastructure), communicated with parents and families and more. NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
16 5. Looking ahead, funding for College Credit Plus may be a problem. 6. With a focus on accelerated, College Credit Plus misses some important levers that should be used to move the needle on students for postsecondary education, such as: college and career awareness programs support services the alignment of high school/college curricula early assessment and placemen transition/bridge programs. NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
17 Projections for 05 College Credit Plus courses... Survey conducted in late spring 05 of the four institutions of higher education that are most active in Central Ohio s College Credit Plus program Central Ohio Technical College Columbus State Community College Kenyon College Ohio Dominican University NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
18 As of mid-june 05, the four institutions had arranged for 450 classes during the 05-6 school year. 60% of the scheduled classes will be taught on high school campuses by high school teachers who are certified as adjunct college faculty 30% of the classes will be taught at high schools by college faculty 7% of the classes will be co-taught by high school teachers under the supervision of a college faculty member Registration data for students planning to take courses at the higher education campuses were not available NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
19 PART II. Program Rich. System Poor. Beyond College Credit Plus Let s be clear: College Credit Plus offers a firm foundation upon which to guild connected strategies that go beyond just tinkering to form a new model for. NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
20 . Managing College Credit Plus as an opportunity for college-ready high school students. Creating new accelerated opportunities that make postsecondary education more accessible for a broader group of students NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
21 Any effective college and career readiness initiative must reflect a simple fact: A number of factors influence student preparation for and eventual In postsecondary education. The Four A s can be the key to expanding college and career success for thousands of Ohioans. Aspirations Academic Preparation Postsecondary Participation Availability Affordability NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
22 Why college attendance is so important The overwhelming majority of new jobs require some postsecondary education either a degree or a certificate with value in the marketplace. Georgetown University s Center on Education and the Workforce recently reported that if current trends continue, the nation will produce three million fewer college graduates by 08 than the labor market will require. NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
23 Economic benefits of beyond high school Higher annual and lifetime earnings Higher total tax payments Less likely to be unemployed Less likely to need public assistance More likely to be offered a pension plan More likely to have employer-provided insurance NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
24 Non-economic benefits of beyond high school Children better prepared for school More likely to engage in leisure-time exercise More likely to vote Better understanding of political and community issues Higher levels of volunteerism Healthier lifestyles with reduced health care costs e NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
25 Where Central Ohio stands... While 37.5% of Ohio s working-age adults (ages 5-64) hold a two-year or four-year college degree, attainment levels vary widely across counties. In Central Ohio, across-county differences are substantial: Delaware 60.9% Franklin 45.5% Licking 3.% Madison 8.0% Pickaway.% Union 38.% NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
26 In 007, approximately 8,000 students entered ninth grade in the public school districts served by the ESCCO. Historic patterns would suggest that about,000 of these young people will graduate from college in three years for a two-year degree, and six years for a four-year degree. NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
27 High School-to-College Outcomes for Students in Public School Districts Served by the ESCCO in Delaware, Franklin, Licking, Madison, Ross and Union Counties High School Grad.

28 What this means is that of all the issues facing education today, none is more important than making sure high school students graduate ready for college and careers. SOURCE: National Center for Higher Education Management Systems (0) NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
29 An Unsettling Prediction... If Ohio continues doing the same things we re doing today with our current rate of growth in postsecondary credentials by 05 the state will have 60,000 fewer citizens in the workforce with postsecondary credentials than it has today. SOURCE: National Center for Higher Education Management Systems (0) NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
30 Recommendations for Action A different mindset and structure will be required to make a significant dent in student in some form of postsecondary education. A much more daring, comprehensive approach must be taken that begins much earlier and eliminates historical barriers to student educational mobility. NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
31 Recommendation # Central Ohio high schools and districts, along with their higher education partners, should establish specific annual goals for student academic performance, in post-high school education; and they should agree on a limited number of metrics for evaluating progress toward those goals. NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
32 Possible metrics might focus tightly on the percentage of students who graduate from high school ready for college and the workplace participate in accelerated while still graduate and enroll in postsecondary programs remediation free complete postsecondary programs by receiving a degree or certificate stay in Central Ohio and achieve success in its workplace NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
33 Recommendation # A Central Ohio Center should be created to serve as an information and data clearinghouse or hub for the region s schools and districts, and their higher education partners, to build capacity and support regional collaboration on college and career readiness issues. NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
34 The hub s roles could include: Facilitate the exchange of information, practices and data related to the development of the 5- and 30-hour college pathways and other forms of accelerated Share promising practices in counseling students and advising them on the selection on options beyond high school Create a clearinghouse (i.e., interactive website) for college and career readiness activities Build the instructional capacity of districts, schools and institutions of higher education through the use of technology to support project-based in the classroom NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
35 Recommendation #3 Schools, districts and their higher education partners should improve academic and career counseling services that, as part of the educational process, enhance student, expose students to career opportunities, help put Opportunity Youth back on track in school and life, and facilitate beyond high school by all students particularly minority and low-income youth and first-generation students from families without a college-going tradition. NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
36 Nothing is more important to these students than advising. Nothing trumps advising. Educational pathways and associated offerings are confusing and students need the opportunity to consider which educational opportunities are best for them. A new focus on advising and career exploration and the resources to accomplish these crucial functions must be addressed. NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
37 Recommendation #4 Central Ohio schools and districts and their higher education partners should work collaboratively to devise and experiment with new structures that foster an education culture and move significantly larger numbers of students from early through high school and into postsecondary programs; and that give all students access to pathways that are regionally relevant, transparent and achievable and that lead to degrees, certificates and credentials with value in the marketplace. NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
38 Build a genuine continuum with particular focus on grades 9 through 4. Promote high school completion and postsecondary by developing a Central Ohio College by Nine initiative. Implement competency-based education at the grades 9 through 4 level. NAVIGATING CENTRAL OHIO S AND CAREER READINESS SYSTEM
