Ensure all students graduate ready for college, careers, and life.

Ensure the foundational partnership between one school district and the partner IHE and encourages community partnerships.

Ensure active learning and intentional development of students’ academic readiness, persistence and self-advocacy, and attainment of secondary and post-secondary outcomes.

Ensure all students feel known and cared for and receive individualized support for academic success and social and emotional well-being.

Ensure all staff are valued and developed as leaders in their respective roles and contribute to the ongoing success of all students and the CIHS.

Ensure successful implementation of the other CIHS Design Elements described in this Guide and enhances other high school operations.
