  8. Expectations As a result of increased global competition, the prolonged economic recession and huge losses of funding for California public education, college and career ready has become a vital necessity for our student’s future. If we truly want our students to be college and career ready, we need to raise the expectations to that aim from day one!

  9. Culture Change If we are going to make significant changes in our county’s poverty rates we must change our county's culture about college and career education. It is a moral, societal and economic imperative. We cannot continue to send so many children off to a future where they will live in poverty.
