Mississippi's vision for every graduate

The CCR Standards, the ISP & Why Durable Skills Are the Center of Career Readiness

Mississippi’s career readiness framework is anchored by the Mississippi College- and Career-Readiness (CCR) Standards — the learning goals for students in pre-K through grade 12, developed by the Mississippi Department of Education (MDE). The standards include 2025 ELA Standards, 2025 Mathematics Standards, 2018 Science Standards, 2018 Computer Science Standards, and 2017 Arts Learning Standards. The 2016 CCR Standards Scaffolding Documents provide teachers with deeper understanding for instruction.

Mississippi requires students to develop an Individual Success Plan (ISP) by the end of seventh grade and to update it annually. The ISP guides course selection and career exploration through high school. Students must select one career cluster and identify at least one diploma endorsement prior to entering ninth grade. Mississippi has two diploma options: the Traditional Diploma requiring 24 Carnegie Units and the Alternate Diploma for students with Significant Cognitive Disability. The Traditional Diploma includes a unique 1-credit College or Career Readiness graduation requirement. Beginning in 2018-19, students may pursue three Endorsement Options: Career and Technical Endorsement (26 credits), Academic Endorsement (26 credits), and Distinguished Academic Endorsement (28 credits). The Pathways to Success initiative aligns career pathway documents with 16 fields from the National Clusters. My Way Mississippi is the state repository of online college and career planning resources. Mississippi CTE offers 44 skill pathways across 15 of the 16 national career clusters at 500+ schools and 15 community colleges. The challenge for Mississippi counselors is that durable skills are easy to name across the ISP, CCR Standards, and Endorsements but hard to measure and develop systematically across multi-year cycles.

Renzulli Learning is the K-12 platform that both assesses and develops the durable skills Mississippi’s CCR Standards, ISP, Traditional Diploma, three Endorsement Options, College or Career Readiness graduation requirement, Pathways to Success, and 44 CTE pathways demand. The Cebeci Test of Creativity (CTC) measures creativity (US Patent 12,087,176) — the durable skill behind innovation across all 15 CTE-served Career Clusters. The Executive Function Assessment measures the durable skills behind academic preparation. The Leadership Assessment measures durable skills supporting Mississippi CTSO participation. The Profiler captures interests, learning styles, and expression styles in 20+ languages — complementing My Way Mississippi. SEM Type III Project-Based Learning produces capstone artifacts complementing the College or Career Readiness graduation requirement. The Personal Success Plan (PSP) generates exportable summaries that complement multi-year ISP documentation across grades 7-12. The result: Mississippi districts get measurable durable-skills evidence — turning the CCR Standards, ISP, and Pathways to Success from policy frameworks into year-round documented practice.

Real challenges

What Mississippi Counselors & CTE Coordinators Struggle With

These are the durable-skills-and-career-readiness challenges we consistently hear from Mississippi educators implementing the CCR Standards, the ISP, the Traditional Diploma + 3 Endorsements, the College or Career Readiness graduation requirement, and the 44 CTE pathways:

Sustaining the multi-year ISP from 7th grade

The Individual Success Plan must be developed by the end of 7th grade and updated annually. Districts need durable-skills measurement and development tools that produce evidence across grades 7-12 — with documentation that fits ISP review and complements My Way Mississippi.

Operationalizing the 1-credit College or Career Readiness

Mississippi’s Traditional Diploma includes a unique 1-credit College or Career Readiness graduation requirement. Districts need integrated tools that measure and develop CCR durable skills with year-round evidence aligned with the Career Development Pacing Guide.

Helping students choose between 3 Endorsement Options

Career and Technical, Academic, and Distinguished Academic Endorsements have different GPA, course, and assessment requirements. Counselors need year-round data on student strengths, executive function, and career interests to help students select the right endorsement before 9th grade.

Connecting CTE to 44 pathways & 15 of 16 Clusters

Mississippi CTE is organized into 44 skill pathways across 15 of the 16 national career clusters at 500+ schools. Counselors need year-round data on student strengths and interests to guide informed pathway selection across the Pathways to Success initiative.

Supporting GEAR UP Mississippi-served districts

GEAR UP Mississippi serves Greenville, McComb, and Meridian public school districts in partnership between Mississippi State University and Woodward Hines Education Foundation. Districts need durable-skills tools that complement GEAR UP college access services and increase college readiness.

Partnering with the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians

The Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians is the only federally-recognized tribe in the State of Mississippi. The MBCI directly operates the Choctaw Tribal School System — the nation’s largest tribally operated educational system. Districts need durable-skills tools that work equitably across linguistic and cultural backgrounds.

Platform tools

Renzulli Learning Tools Mapped to Mississippi’s Durable Skills Demands

Each Renzulli tool maps to specific CCR Standards, ISP components, 24-Carnegie-Unit graduation requirements, Endorsement Option criteria, and Mississippi CTE Career Clusters — producing concrete, exportable evidence of durable skills growth:

Renzulli Profiler: A 20–30 minute student self-assessment for grades Pre-K through 12. Captures each student’s interests, learning styles, and expression styles — the strength-based foundation that powers ISP career cluster selection by end of 7th grade and surfaces interests across all 15 CTE-served Mississippi Career Clusters. Available in 20+ languages, supporting Mississippi’s tribal communities and English language learners.
Cebeci Test of Creativity (CTC): A validated, standardized creativity assessment (US Patent 12,087,176) measuring fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration. Culture-independent design supports more equitable durable-skills identification across linguistic and cultural backgrounds — particularly relevant for Mississippi partnership work with the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians and the Choctaw Tribal School System.
Executive Function Assessment (EFA): Measures planning, working memory, self-regulation, and metacognition — the durable skills behind academic preparation in Mississippi’s CCR Standards. EFA dashboards highlight where students need scaffolding to complete the 24 Carnegie Units, sustain learning across the multi-year ISP from grade 7 through grade 12, and meet the GPA thresholds for the Academic (2.5) and Distinguished Academic (3.0) Endorsements.
Leadership Assessment: Measures the durable skills behind employability skills in Mississippi CTE and Mississippi CTSO participation: FFA, FBLA, FCCLA, HOSA, SkillsUSA, DECA, and TSA. Produces measurable evidence districts can use for Perkins V CTE accountability and the Career and Technical Endorsement’s ACT WorkKeys silver level + dual credit / WBL / national credential requirement.
Personal Success Plan (PSP): A student-driven goal, project, and reflection tracker that builds a portable durable-skills portfolio. Generates exportable summaries that students and counselors use across the multi-year ISP from grades 7-12 — complementing My Way Mississippi and supporting the Career Development Pacing Guide.
Project-Based Learning (PBL) Tools: Schoolwide Enrichment Model (SEM) Type III investigations produce authentic projects, presentations, portfolios, and reflections — exactly the artifacts the 1-credit College or Career Readiness graduation requirement, ISP career exploration, and the Career and Technical Endorsement’s WBL component expect. PBL simultaneously develops critical thinking, communication, collaboration, problem-solving, and creativity — the durable skills behind the CCR Standards.
Renzulli Enrichment Database: Over 40,000 curated, standards-aligned activities matched to each student’s Profiler results — including resources supporting Mississippi’s 2025 ELA and Math Standards, the 2018 Science and Computer Science Standards, and career-exploration activities for all 15 CTE-served Career Clusters across the 44 Pathways to Success career field documents.
21st-Century & Durable Skills Framework: Structured activities and rubrics build all seven canonical durable skills — producing growth evidence districts can use for ISP documentation, Endorsement Option progress monitoring, College or Career Readiness graduation requirement, and Perkins V CTE accountability.

From Mississippi educators

What Implementation Looks Like in Mississippi Districts

“The CCR Standards give us learning goals from pre-K through grade 12, the ISP gives us a multi-year planning anchor starting in 7th grade, and the three Endorsement Options give students real pathway choices — but operationalizing all of that AND tracking durable-skills growth has been hard. With Renzulli’s Profiler complementing My Way Mississippi in 20+ languages, the EFA showing us which students need scaffolding to hit the GPA 2.5 (Academic) or 3.0 (Distinguished Academic) thresholds, the Leadership Assessment supporting our FFA, FBLA, FCCLA, and HOSA students across all 15 CTE-served Career Clusters, and SEM Type III PBL producing artifacts that work for the 1-credit College or Career Readiness graduation requirement AND ISP career exploration, our Pathways to Success conversations have finally become evidence-driven. The CTC has been particularly valuable for our partnership work with Choctaw Tribal Schools students.”
