Life and Career Readiness is defined as the integration of social and emotional learning, positive youth development and college and career readiness. The committee developed <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1Pwu271bD2dGO-fFZQDNrpTVkzVz7lMa-JnVm7W3ohJ8\/edit?usp=sharing\">Core Beliefs<\/a> and a <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1NoRFMuv_m7TJmvac_oiXfUUXFXqTUfI53PUoeIcqLlk\/edit?usp=sharing\">Theory of Action<\/a> to guide the review process. The committee has developed a <a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1iXnSjMZ_1PVtJodPaVZIibzI2ep7Szjg\/view?usp=sharing\">draft infographic<\/a> to visually represent the integration. The skills students gain during their K-12 years play a vital role in their success in life and career.
