Our North Star: A Culture of College and Career Readiness
In career and technical education, maintaining a
North Star is ensuring that faculty, students and stakeholders all have a firm understanding of a shared goal. At Our Career Center, our
North Star is simple: College and Career Readiness. In order to maintain this
North Star, we must have transparent communication and work in collaboration with many entities, to include industry partners in education, community members and educators that serve in multiple capacities.
This week's article discusses the importance of having a North Star and a shared goal for pathway outcomes. Chiefs for Change places emphasis on engaging all stakeholders and tracking and regularly reporting progress and results toward the shared pathways goal and underlying success metrics. Our mantra remains, Together we are building the future: Today's Students, Tomorrow's Workforce. You may also find that we speak often of standards and values and how we strive to be: Industry Recognized, Industry Valued.
Mr. David Castro, Our Career Center Counselor
Good Morning HS Principals,
I want to start by thanking Eastwood High School, Parkland High School and Bel Air High School for their hospitality in the recruitment process. ALL of our students were very respectful, attentive and interested in the programs that we offer in YISD. Currently I am in the process of evaluating and auditing 400+ applications. If you have questions or comments please feel free to reach out to me or Mr. Robledo as we transition the first semester.
There is a lot of interest this year and we do feel it is going to be a banner year at our Career Center for current and future students.
Rob Robledo, Administrator for Our Career Center
