Overview

School reform has been happening since the 1970’s. Schools created policies that made changes to classroom instruction, school dress codes, and how schools function, hoping to create a culture that breeds student success. But recent developments in technology and research have introduced a new factor in reform, social/emotional learning (SEL). From grit to growth mindset, social/emotional learning has become a major influence for student success in the world of education. The Prepared Student addresses the elements that surround the need for SEL to be a part of a school’s culture and the changing college and employment landscape that demand schools prepare students for the road after high school graduation. Colleges giving the option for applicants to submit test scores for selection and employers rewriting what skills students need to be employable, SEL has become a strength that our students need to be successful in life. The Prepared Student helps school administrators and teachers focus on what needs to be done to prepare our students for their future.

"A real-world look into the social, emotional, and academic needs of students today. -- Kelly A. Foster, Ed.D, Associate Commissioner, Office of Continuous Improvement and Support, Kentucky Department of Education “Dr. Garrick Ratliff has written a must-read for districts looking to improve student transition to life after K-12 education. As higher learning institutions are removing the ACT/SAT admission requirements and a workforce demanding students to be ""work ready,"" districts are challenged to transform their schools to become multi-dimensional. Ratliff's work helps districts develop an instructional plan to reflect on current practices, incorporate social and emotional learning in the school culture, and develop systems to ensure transitional success for each student.” -- Allison Mathews, District Assessment Coordinator, Rowan County Schools “If your definition of “success” for students in your district is more than ‘making the grade’, this book is a must read for you and your instructional support team! The transition from high school to college can be scary. This book takes the fear away and replaces it with strategies to help students transition into life, not just school. Through scenarios, examples and reflective questions, your team can use this amazing resource to elevate students to a level of holistic success after high school. I can’t wait to share this book with others in my various roles as an educator!” -- Trisha Carroll, Teacher, District Leader, Educational Consultant & Chief Operating Officer Kentucky Educational Development Corporation"
