Rachel Burris writes to district and CCHS administrators after reviewing the 2022-23 school profile and comparing it with profiles from nearby high schools. She argues that the document could give colleges more specificity about CCHS priorities, student population and academic offerings.
Her suggestions include describing the district equity plan; adding racial, ethnic and socioeconomic demographic information; highlighting CTE pathways, AVID, AVPA, Link Crew, Academic Mentorship, Chiron and dual enrollment; and explaining the shift to College Prep English for ninth and tenth graders.
Burris also recommends listing weighted and non-weighted honors courses and including AP performance context, citing an 81 percent figure for AP exams scoring 3 or higher. She frames the changes as a way to help universities understand the opportunities and context behind CCHS student transcripts.
