Episode One: College & Career Readiness / School's Core Beliefs

Episode One: College & Career Readiness / School's Core Beliefs

Real Issues. Real Conversations.


In our first episode, two groups of students from the "Clarkston Talks" podcast reflect on college & career readiness, while also examining their school's core beliefs.


The state of Georgia considers "College & Career Ready Students" as students who;


  • Enter the Technical College System of Georgia (TCSG) or University System of Georgia (USG) without needing remediation;
  • Achieve a readiness score on the ACT, SAT, two or more Advanced Placement (AP) exams, or two or more International Baccalaureate (IB) exams;
  • Pass a pathway-aligned end of pathway assessment (EOPA) resulting in a national or state credential; or
  • Complete a work-based learning program.


The Governor's Office in Georgia last measured Clarkston's College & Career Readiness as 31.8%, against a state average of 56.8% and county average of 50.5%.


Our Leaders of Tomorrow also discussed their school's established core beliefs.


  • Learning is an ongoing and far-reaching process that involves students, parents, educators, and community.
  • Students will maximize their learning potential by analyzing and synthesizing information.
  • Students will be able to communicate acquired knowledge.
  • Parents and educators must nurture student potential.
  • Students and educators will maintain high ethical and academic standards.
  • Students must accept responsibility for their personal, academic, and social growth.
  • Teachers will use a variety of methods to ensure academic success for all students.


Should students actively have a role in shaping their school's core beliefs?


We invite your feedback, and want you to join in the conversation.
