There are nine interrelated elements that together help schools build and strengthen a college-going culture.  The nine elements are: 

• College Talk
• Clear Expectations
• Information and Resources
• Comprehensive Counseling Model
• Testing and Curriculum
• Faculty Involvement
• Family Involvement
• College Partnerships
• Articulation

In order to set goals for your individual campus you must first:

• Inventory and assess present activities and challenges
• Agree on a few (one or three) of the nine college-going elements to work on
• Establish a few goals for the year under each college-going element
• Develop an action implementation plan for each goal

Remember: start with doable goals and know who on your campus is trained to assist CCMR Roles and Calendar
