The North Dakota CHOICE READY framework is a tool to assist educators to ensure all students successfully depart high school possessing the ESSENTIAL SKILLS necessary to be ready for life. The journey begins by ensuring students leave having the ESSENTIAL SKILLS to be successful for whichever path they choose. Students shall then strive to be POST-SECONDARY READY, WORKFORCE READY, and/or MILITARY READY.
