The impending impacts of the demographic cliff, political pressures on higher ed, diminishing public perception of the value of higher ed, institutional financial challenges, difficulties in staffing: this meeting covered ALL of the mega-trends! Before reading this, I hadn't heard of SHEEO as an organization, but it's really great to see that leaders of these campuses and systems are trying to take on all of these major issues. We all spend a lot of time talking about what's coming next in higher ed, but these folks are on the leading edge of *creating* the future of higher ed, so it's an encouraging read, I think.

The Rush-Henrietta Board of Education approved four district goals at its regularly scheduled meeting Tuesday, January 23. The goals are the result of a community-wide survey; six focus groups; student data including demographics, behavior, proficiency and graduation; and two in-person workshops to review all of this information. The four goals are: · Excellence for Every Student: R-H will sustain and further develop its culture of academic distinction by championing the potential within every student. · Preparing Students for the Pathways to Tomorrow: R-H will be a driving force for workforce development and a cornerstone for community growth. · Foundation to Flourish for All Students: R-H will cultivate a vibrant educational landscape where every student's engagement is ignited and positive behavior is naturally fostered. · Cohesive and Inclusive Community and Culture: R-H is dedicated to fostering a cohesive and welcoming community, where open communication serves as the foundation for unity. Thank you to everyone who shared feedback during the past few months to help us create these four important goals. The future is bright!

✏️ Let's erase the digital divide ✏️ On a mission to end generational poverty by brokering the collision of worlds to amplify educational attainment and improve livelihoods | Former Google Exec
Addressing the critical issue highlighted in this EdSource article, where a majority of high school students fail to complete the A-G requirements for admission to the University of California or California State University systems, reinforces the urgency of our mission at Inspirame. The panelists rightly emphasize the need to raise expectations and provide robust support to ensure student success. This aligns with our commitment to empowering learners through TecoGuide, a platform designed to guide students seamlessly from college access to career readiness. The challenges highlighted in the article, such as the lack of awareness, inadequate support, and conflicting schedules, underscore the necessity for innovative solutions. TecoGuide, with its comprehensive features, is positioned to bridge these gaps by offering clear pathways, financial aid guidance, and real-time assistance. Our mission is not only about creating awareness but providing actionable degree plans and real-time guidance to all learners. By leveraging technology, we aim to make the educational journey more accessible, reducing the barriers faced by students and parents who may not be familiar with A-G requirements. Moreover, TecoGuide is there to remind families that financial constraints should not be a detour but an opportunity to explore alternative paths, including affordable options like community college transfer routes. The systemic changes discussed, especially the need for equity-focused evaluation and default enrollment processes, resonate deeply with our vision for inclusivity and accessibility. Through collaborations with schools, districts, and equity programs, we aspire to contribute to the transformative changes needed at both the district and statewide levels. Inspirame is dedicated to being an integral part of the solution, empowering all students to navigate their educational journey successfully. Let's work together to create a future where every student has the opportunity to fulfill their dreams, irrespective of their background or circumstances. This opportunity is too important to keep quiet, I hope you will join me in sharing the importance of expanding access and awareness. Mauricio Gonzalez #TecoGuide
