Mainstream’s Test Ready program introduces students in grades 6-12 to the concept of college readiness and prepares them for success. Through instruction and exposure, young people begin to incorporate the skills and experiences necessary to achieve to their own highest levels of ability. The Test Ready program covers the following content areas:
- Mastery of Essential Skills in English, Math, Reading, Science, and Writing
- College/Career Eligibility and Readiness
- Setting Short- and Long-Term Goals
- Mastering Study Skills
Test Ready is designed to be delivered in a semester-long format and can accommodate classrooms with up to 30 students. Mainstream coordinates with the school’s leadership team to develop the specific requirements for each session. In addition, Mainstream collects student-specific data and shares student progress data with the school as often as the school requires but at least at the halfway point and at program end.
