  • About Us

    College & Career Readiness works to ensure that every student in Portland Public Schools is a successful global citizen.

    Our commitment: Advance the achievement of all students in Portland Public Schools.

    Our charge: Ensure that each student graduates from high school prepared for college and careers and equipped with the knowledge, skills and dispositions necessary to thrive in the 21st century.

  • Advanced Placement (AP)

     Pursue college-level studies while still in high school.  Gain the confidence and skills to succeed in college along with the possibility of earning college credit. 

  • Career & Technical Education (CTE)

     Receive real-world, industry-relevant, hands-on learning experiences, both in the classroom and in the community.

  • International Baccalaureate (IB)

     Develop inquiry based knowledge to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect.

  • Dual Credit

     Enroll in college level courses at your high school with the potential to earn both high school and college credit.

  • Advancement Via Individual Determination (AVID)

     AVID provides scaffolded support that educators and students need to encourage college and career readiness and success.

  • High School Success Plan

     Our plan: All students will graduate as compassionate critical thinkers, able to collaborate and solve problems, and prepared to lead a more socially just world, and we will eliminate opportunity gaps for racially historically underserved students.
