The College & Career Readiness Counselor reports to the school's Director of College Counseling and provides comprehensive postsecondary planning support to students who are not on a college pathway at Uncommon Charter High School. Comparable to a traditional college counselor, this role is specifically designed to support students across all postsecondary pathways, including college, career training, and workforce readiness, through highly individualized, strengths-based counseling and instruction.
The College & Career Readiness Counselor teaches a College & Career Readiness course to all 11th- and 12th-grade students in the 15:1 program at UCHS to supports students in exploring their interests, identities, strengths, and goals, while building the academic, social-emotional, and practical skills needed to successfully transition to life after high school.
By the end of the course, students will be able to:
Identify personal strengths, interests, and identities, and leverage internal and external supports to pursue postsecondary success. Analyze the world around them and articulate informed perspectives through the lens of their lived experiences and values. Communicate their academic, professional, and personal assets effectively in writing and in person. Evaluate postsecondary environments (college, training programs, careers) that align with their identity, goals, and sense of purpose. Understand the costs of postsecondary options and identify funding sources and financial supports.
