November 2023 Report
Below is the Oregon City School District reporting on the Strategic Plan efforts as of November 3rd, 2023.
Career and College Readiness
Goal 1: By 2027, all students will have a 6-year plan (7-12th grade) that will support post graduation planning.
District Career and College Team created
The District Career and College Team (11 teammates including counseling, career and college staff, administrators, coaches, student services, and alternative education staff) worked to identify existing and needed data.
Naviance Training on 10.11.23 included all secondary counselors, YTP coordinators, instructional coaches and the District Career & College Team
The District Career and College Team meets every two weeks to coordinate and develop action plans for every goal within this priority area.
Middle school coaches and counselors have coordinated to begin portfolios.
The Career and College Coordinators have prepared and delivered the first module in Naviance for high school students in mentor teams.

Experiences so far include: Eaton Electric tour, CCC Manufacturing Day, and the Oregon Career Fair (over 200 students participating in these experiences so far).
Goal 2: By 2027, all classroom teachers will tie their units or instructional content to career and college readiness at least quarterly.
The DCC Team has determined that we will utilize the 16 pathways identified by the national model.

Data from the 2022 & 2023 Senior Surveys has been studied and will be useful moving forward.
