Renzulli Learning

New Hampshire Career Readiness Alignment

A Comprehensive Guide to Integrating Renzulli Learning with State Standards

Renzulli Learning helps New Hampshire schools prepare students for the future of work by developing critical thinking, creativity, and executive function (planning, organization, working memory, self-regulation)—the durable skills that drive success in college, career, and life.

Our personalized, project-based approach aligns with New Hampshire’s College and Career Ready Standards (NH CCRS)—which emphasize knowledge, skills, and work-study practices—along with the K–12 Career Development Curriculum Framework, Career & Technical Education (CTE) pathways, Extended Learning Opportunities (ELOs)/Learn Everywhere, and competency-based graduation requirements (Ed 306.23).

Renzulli Learning Alignment

K–5 Career AwarenessBuild early career awareness and self-knowledge; help students see the connection between interests, academics, and future roles in work, family, and community, in line with the K–12 Career Development Framework’s emphasis on awareness and exploration.The Renzulli Profiler surfaces each child’s interests, strengths, and preferred ways of learning; early project-based learning (PBL) on community helpers and local problems; daily plan–do–review routines that build Executive Function (planning, focus, time management) and the habits of self-directed learning identified in NH career development and work-study expectations.
6–8 Career Exploration Deepen career exploration and decision-making; help students merge self-data with knowledge of the workplace, and plan courses and experiences for high school, as described in the career development continuum.The Personal Success Plan (PSP) mirrors and enriches local academic and career planning processes with goal-setting, reflection, and evidence of growth; Executive Function assessment identifies planning/working-memory needs; structured research and design challenges tied to New Hampshire’s priority sectors; 21st-century skills tasks (creativity, collaboration, communication) aligned with NH’s work-study practices.
9–12 Career Planning & CTEEnsure students demonstrate required graduation competencies (Ed 306.23), complete rigorous coursework, and access multiple pathways—CTE programs, ELOs, Learn Everywhere, dual enrollment, and local career pathways—that build readiness for postsecondary education, training, or employment.Capstones, internships, and Type III projects aligned to CTE programs and ELOs; EF reporting supports on-time task completion and workplace readiness habits; PSP artifacts align with local four-year plans, NH Scholars and other pathway tools; creativity assessed and developed (e.g., CTC-aligned tasks) to produce industry-relevant products, presentations, and digital portfolios that demonstrate graduation competencies.
At-Risk / TransitionSupport students in meeting graduation requirements and demonstrating college- and career-ready competencies—often captured through CTE completion, ELOs, dual enrollment, and other indicators in New Hampshire’s accountability system.Leadership and workplace modules grow confidence, employability, and self-advocacy; regular PSP check-ins provide accountability; progress monitoring against NH CCRS and local Portrait-of-a-Graduate-style competencies; embedded Executive Function routines reinforce persistence, organization, and adaptability for successful transition to college, career, or military service.

Core Capabilities (K–12)

  • 21st-Century & Durable Skills
    Structured activities strengthen creativity, critical thinking, collaboration, communication, adaptability, and professionalism—the same types of knowledge, skills, and work-study practices emphasized in New Hampshire’s College and Career Ready Standards and K–12 Career Development Framework (e.g., teamwork, responsibility, problem-solving, self-management).

  • Executive Function (EF)
    Built-in assessment and growth routines for planning, organization, working memory, and self-regulation; dashboards help educators scaffold the habits students need to succeed in competency-based courses, CTE programs, ELOs, and other graduation pathways defined in Ed 306.23. 

  • Personal Success Plan (PSP)
    Goal-setting, reflection, and evidence of growth—easily mapped onto local academic and career plans, four-year plans, and NH Scholars-style pathways—help counselors and teachers document each student’s progress toward postsecondary goals and readiness indicators. 

  • Project-Based Enrichment
    Student-driven investigations aligned to New Hampshire’s priority industries, community needs, and workforce demands; pairs naturally with CTE coursework, Extended Learning Opportunities, and Learn Everywhere programs to create artifacts that can be cited in competency determinations, planning meetings, and graduation reviews. 

  • Profiler-Powered Personalization
    Interests, strengths, and learning styles drive differentiated enrichment and career exploration so students choose CTE programs, ELOs, and postsecondary options that authentically reflect their profiles and the local Portrait of a Graduate / Portrait of a Learner competencies many NH districts have adopted.

Research Evidence & Long-Term Outcomes

  • SEM foundation, career-relevant gains
    Enrichment-oriented models like the Schoolwide Enrichment Model (SEM)—the foundation of Renzulli Learning—are associated with improved academic performance, more students choosing rigorous coursework (including STEM), and greater entry into high-value postsecondary fields, all strong indicators of college and career readiness.

  • Creativity growth over time
    Multi-year implementations using Renzulli Learning report measurable increases in creativity through authentic projects and the Cebeci Test of Creativity (CTC), reinforcing New Hampshire’s emphasis on innovation, problem-solving, and adaptability in the workplace.

  • Executive Function as the engine
    EF assessment plus project workflows build self-management, focus, and perseverance—skills central to success in competency-based systems, CTE programs, ELOs, and other pathways that New Hampshire uses to validate college and career readiness.
