Partnering with States: JFF's College Readiness Services

For almost 25 years, JFF has been a leader in helping state and district partners develop and implement a wide range of secondary school designs that prepare all students to succeed at the postsecondary level. These designs include early college high schools, integrated high school college pathways, and back-on-track options that prepare over-aged and under-credited youth for college success. In this work, JFF uniquely marries innovation with proven strategies through the introduction of pioneering school designs and the expansion of the most promising practices in the field.

Toward JFF’s goal of doubling the number of young people who graduate from high school and who are well prepared for college, and to help states support the priorities of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, we offer two sets of college-readiness services:

• Strategic school design, planning, and implementation: Services include school design evaluation and selection, policy condition assessments, postsecondary partnership development, fiscal planning, and implementation support

• College readiness professional development: Services include instructional coaching, leadership training, and capacity building support to help schools design and implement a coherent college-ready instructional program for all students
