Sedalia 200 Data Dashboard - College, Career + Workforce Readiness

Students use an Individual Career and Academic Plan (ICAP) as a planning tool to set goals and build their College, Career and Workplace (CCWR) portfolio of evidence. Students engage with Market Value Assets, DESE Certification/Credentialing, Qualifying Assessments and/or foundational learning as evidenced in end-of-course exams that support their ICAP. The level of student engagement with this learning can be found in a more detailed description below.

Individual Career + Academic Plan

Also known as ICAP, this serves as a “roadmap” to help students develop the awareness, knowledge, attitudes, and skills to create their own meaningful pathways to be success-ready graduates.

89.1%

of the students in the 2025 graduating class had an ICAP that guided their academic planning.

95.4%

of the students in grades 8-12 have an ICAP to guide their academic planning.

Market Value Assets

Also known as MVAs, these are cornerstone experiences that prepare a student for future learning and employment. MVAs are authentic previews of the world of work or post-secondary education. While the professional and academic worlds are ever-changing, the outgrowths students develop when they work on authentic projects with real employers and mentors are durable enough to benefit them throughout their lives.

98.5%

of the students in the 2025 graduating class engaged in at least one MVA.

DESE Certification/Credentialing

A DESE-approved Industry Recognized Credential (IRC) is defined as a portable, recognized credential that validates an individual has successfully demonstrated skill competencies in a core set of content and performance standards in a specific set of work-related tasks, single occupational area, or a cluster of related occupational areas.

61%

of the students in grades 9-12 participated in a DESE recognized Certification/Credentialing program.

42.9%

of the graduating students who participated in a DESE recognized Certification/Credentialing program completed the program (2 credits or more).

Qualifying Assessments

Department-approved measures (qualifying assessments) are represented by the following: ACT®, SAT®, WorkKeys®, ACCUPLACER®, and ASVAB. Scores on any of these assessments count toward the College and Career Readiness Assessment calculation. Once a student has identified goals in their Individual Career and Academic Plan, the student then identifies the appropriate CCR assessment that aligns with the ICAP goal(s). In this way, the assessment are more meaningful for the student since the assessment connects directly to their personal goals.

97.7%

of the students in the graduating class of 2025 took at least one of the qualifying assessments.

End of Course Exams

Standards-based tests that measure specific skills defined for each content area by the state of Missouri. Required exams are: English Language Arts II, Algebra I, Biology, and Government.Students in Missouri, including Missouri Option Program students, have four End-of-Course assessments that are required prior to high school graduation: Algebra I, Biology, English II and Government. Optional assessments are available for local accountability in Algebra II, American History, English I, Geometry, Personal Finance, and Physical Science. For students who complete the Algebra I EOC assessment prior to high school, Algebra II is the required high school mathematics assessment for accountability purposes.

ENGLISH II

81%

of students taking the English II End of Course Assessment performed at or above grade level (Basic, Proficient, Advanced).

359 students tested.

BIOLOGY

76%

of students taking the Biology End of Course Assessment performed at or above grade level (Basic, Proficient, Advanced).

278 students tested.

ALGEBRA I

73%

*With the change in course offerings at SCHS, the population of students taking this exam decreased to less than 135 students total reported here (i.e. students who transferred in without scores, virtual students, or other circumstances.)

GOVERNMENT

91%

of students taking the Government End of Course Assessment performed at or above grade level (Basic, Proficient, Advanced).

366 students tested.

Graduation Rate

The student graduation rate is calculated by data submitted through the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education core data platform. The score is calculated based on the percent of students who complete an educational program that meets the graduation requirement of 24 credits. Students may complete requirements in 4 but no more than 7 years in Missouri. LEAs required reporting aligns with DESE’s current practice (4- year and 5-year).

Graduation Follow-Up

The Follow-Up rate measures the extent to which the students of an LEA or school pursue gainful opportunities after graduation. Points in this category are awarded to graduates who meet one of the five identified categories in the indicator: college enrollment, trade/technical school, employment, military service, and/or National or Community Service or Peace Corps.
