We are thrilled to (finally) share the CUSD#1 Graduate Profile with the Charleston community. This was developed in 2019-2020 with feedback from Eastern Illinois University, Lakeland College, the business community, and CUSD#1 parents, students and staff. Each of these groups was asked, “What will a graduate of Charleston High School need to be successful the day AFTER high school graduation?” Our district Competency Based Leadership Team reviewed all of the input we received, categorized it, and then developed the profile statements you see on this graphic. We’ve been waiting for the right time to share this with you all, and the time is now! This profile will serve as a guiding document, which will specify academic, personal, and interpersonal skills students should possess as they walk across the stage on graduation day. These goals provide a shared vision, or a set of priorities, for our work with students throughout their PK-12 experience in CUSD#1. This Graduate Profile ties directly in with our Competency Based Education (CBE) initiative. CBE is about personalized learning for students, with an emphasis on mastery of prioritized learning standards or “targets”, student goal setting, student-centered instruction, and college and career readiness. There are some exciting plans underway here, including: developing specific, measurable targets aligned with the Graduate Profile for students in Grades K-2, 3-5, 6-8, and 9-12; and designing 8 Career Pathways for Charleston High School students, which will provide more variety and choice for high school students based on their strengths, interests, and post-high school plans. We are excited for the future here in CUSD#1. Please keep an eye on our website and social media platforms for updates and announcements about these and other wonderful, new opportunities for our students.
