Program Route to Implementation

Which pathway(s) are right for your district?  

• Do everything except the capstone

• Only do the capstone

• Start with middle school with the intention of adding more over time

• Start by trying to figure out how to get kids qualify for the seal without adding to their program and only tweaking what is already there (limits access)

• Only offer the seal as an opportunity in google classroom as “independent study” but only trying to quality without the option to do any of the projects through the school

• Offer the capstone as an opportunity in google classroom as “independent study” with an advisor

• Student’s apply to the seal to show their intention to seek the seal 

• Elements of civic readiness are intentionally infused into coursework 7-12 so ALL students will gain a foundation of civic readiness and have access to the opportunity to earn the seal but only some will take advantage.
