Federated States of Micronesia Partnership for College and Career Readiness and Success
Many students in the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) graduate from high school unprepared for college-level credit-bearing courses or to be successful in the workforce. Our partners in the FSM are committed to using research results, data, and best practices to guide policy and practice to increase college and career readiness and success.
Goals
Increase awareness of evidence-based strategies to help more students transition successfully from high school to college and careers.
