Districts & Schools

The systems, sessions, and staff training that move your CCI and FAFSA numbers, in English and Spanish.

CCI (the state's College/Career Indicator). CCGI (California's college and career planning platform). A-G completion. FAFSA rates. We work alongside your whole team to build the systems that move those numbers, in English and Spanish.

Schedule a District Strategy Call

K-12 districts and county offices of education, working across multiple school sites, in English and Spanish.

Listen. Bring your goals and your numbers. Pilot. One cohort, about eight weeks. Decide. Leading indicators inside one term, expand or not.

We claim no grant eligibility on your behalf, and no score is ever promised.

The Challenge

We become part of your team.

Think of us the way a hospital brings in a specialist. Your staff knows your students. We know what moves the data. Together, you get both.

We build our work around the systems you are already accountable for: CCI, CCGI, LCAP (your district's Local Control and Accountability Plan), A-G completion, FAFSA and Dream Act submission rates. No new platforms. No generic reports. A partnership that shows up in your California School Dashboard numbers.

What We Do

Four pillars. One integrated partnership.

CCR Strategy & Data

Know exactly where students are falling behind, and why.

  • CCI, A-G, FAFSA, and dual enrollment analysis by site and subgroup
  • Prioritized action plan tied directly to your LCAP goals
  • Gap identification across school sites with clear next steps

How It Works

Four steps from first call to Dashboard results.

01

District Data Review

We pull your CCI, A-G, FAFSA, and dual enrollment data and identify where students are falling out of the pipeline by site, subgroup, and grade.

02

Priority Action Plan

You receive a roadmap tied directly to your LCAP goals: what to do first, what to do next, and what metrics will show it working.

03

Program Launch

We run the first sessions alongside your counseling team, not instead of them. Staff PD, family engagement, and student work happen simultaneously.

04

Track & Report

Monthly check-ins tied to your Dashboard metrics. You see the numbers move. We adjust the program to match what the data shows.

Flagship Program
