Career & College Readiness

Career and College Readiness

Our school system is only as strong as the expectations we hold for our students. As outlined in our strategic plan, 2024: The Future our Kids Deserve, JP Schools succeeds when all students graduate high school socially, emotionally, academically and financially ready for a career and/or college. At the heart of it, college and career readiness is about preparing our students to make the world a better place.
