Superintendent's Strategy

The recently completed DPS Strategic Roadmap, DPS Thrives, focuses on “getting better at getting better” and ensures conditions for student success exist so that everylearnerthrives. The District’s mission calls for a shared commitment to equitable programming that will set our students up for a successful and fulfilling future. “Educational equity is our collective responsibility. We prepare students for career, college and life.” To this end, the Superintendent’s vision includes a commitment to expand internship and apprenticeship opportunities for students throughout the district.

With this in mind, the Career and College Success department will continue to offer tangible support, opportunities, and resources throughout the student experience by focusing on

(1) Individual Exploration & Discovery (2) Career Exploration, and (3) Academic & Career Planning and Management.

We will recommit ourselves to serving priority youth and engaging students, families, school staff and our partners. We will also shift our efforts to to build comprehensive kindergarten to workforce (k-20) pathways that imbed opportunities for students to achieve career and college competencies.
