Pre-K-12 Portrait of a Learner
Pre-K-12 Portrait of a Learner
FNESU students developed the Portrait of a Learner characteristics by identifying the most important skills in order to be ready for college and life beyond high school. This was done in collaboration with industry leaders and FNESU staff. The result is transformative learning that adapts to each student while building the critical competencies they'll need to thrive in tomorrow's workplace. Our Portrait of a Learner skills represent enduring skills that will help students succeed after high school in an unpredictable future of work and is consistent with work happening across the country.
