WHAT is College and/or Career Readiness and WHY is it important?

Greenville County Schools was transformative in their creation of the “Graduation +/G+” Initiative!

G+ recognizes that jobs in today’s workforce require more than a high school education. GCS is committed to graduating students with a diploma, plus a technical certification and/or college credit. G+ is a district-wide initiative from pre-K through high school to ensure all students are career and college ready. 

This initiative has been implemented by the state (CCR) and is an essential part of high schools accountability/rating. 

At Riverside, our students often earned both college and career credentials before graduation! We heavily encourage CCR completion early in a student's high school experience!
