The NDDPI will soon be releasing final School Accountability Reports for the 2022-2023 school year. The Choice Ready Framework is a key component of our accountability system and worth 129 points or 21% of the total. It measures whether our high schools produce students who are ready for success upon graduation. The NDDPI, NDCTE, EduTech and NDREA are sponsoring two Choice Ready Workshops to provide key updates, review the 2022-2023 Choice Ready data, and share information to assist school personnel in helping our ND students graduate Choice Ready. Topics to be addressed at the workshop include:

• Choice Ready results from 2022-2023
• Alignment between Choice Ready framework and new state scholarship
• How to apply for a Choice Ready grant and budgeting for Choice Ready
• Updates on the Workforce Ready Pathway
• Alternate Choice Ready Results and Changes
• Completing the Choice Ready report
