College and Career Ready Standards

In the DoDEA schools , teaching and learning is based upon College and Career Ready Standards ( CCRS ). These rigorous standards are designed to ensure that students have the content knowledge , skills , habits , and dispositions in multiple subjects to be successful in their future endeavors , after high school .
To be successful after high school , all graduates must possess a range of content knowledge , abilities and motivation to succeed that can only come from a rigorous , rich , and well- rounded Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 12 education . Nationwide , it has become expected that high school graduates need to continue their education in a postsecondary course of study , program or training series if they are to have options and opportunities in the current job market .
