About CCMR Indicators
-
Readiness for the next step after high school - College, Career, or Military - is the culmination of a K-12 culture of high expectations, opportunities to engage in challenging coursework, and career exploration.
The Texas Education Agency (TEA) has identified specific ways that a student can demonstrate readiness for college, career, and military experience beyond high school. LISD strives for each graduate to meet at least one of the College, Career & Military Readiness (CCMR) indicators below through high school programming.
- Meet specific criteria on assessments of college readiness - SAT, ACT, or TSIA2
- Earn credit for the Math/English College Prep courses offered to seniors on each high school campus
- Earn 3 hours of Dual Credit in Math or English
- Earn 9 hours of Dual Credit in any subject other than Math or English
- Earn a 3 or higher on an Advanced Placement (AP) exam in any subject area in grades 9-12
- Earn an Associate's Degree while in high school
- Complete an aligned sequence of CTE coursework and earn the culminating Industry-Based Certification
- Enlist in the United States Armed Forces or National Guard after graduation
LISD recognizes that these TEA indicators represent a narrow definition and measure of readiness. We believe that students are much more than a test score. The wealth of experiences provided in LISD prepares students to be collaborators, critical thinkers, and problem solvers ready to confidently take their next step after graduation.
