The Commonwealth Commitment to College and Career Readiness
The undersigned, on behalf of the Gallatin County Public Schools, pledge to increase the rate of college and career readiness of the graduates in our school district from 21% in 2010 to 61% in 2015. To meet this goal, 71 students in the 2010-2011 eighth grade class will need to be college and career ready, 54 more students than were college and career ready in the graduating class of 2012.Note: The College and Career Readiness percentage rate is based on the individual goal for each district to increase its 2010 rate by 50% in 2015 (100% less 2010 rate; divided by 2, added to the 2010 rate)The College and Career Readiness rate was published in September 2010 and is available on the KDE website. Each district has a unique goal. Refer to the exact district numbers from the college/career readiness report.Based on information on the KDE website, your district goal is to increase the percentage of college and career ready students to 61% and to increase the number of college and career ready students by 54 in 2015 for a total of 71 students.
