  • Data Literacy as a Foundational Competency
    By Tom Darling

    We live in a world overflowing with information. Every decision, from hiring to teaching to product design, now relies on data in some way. That is why data literacy is no longer a nice-to-have. It is a core competency for every learner, educator, and leader.  

  • The End of Either/Or: Preparing Students for College — and Career
    By Tom Darling

    For many years, students often felt they had to choose between college or a career.

This way of thinking has shaped counseling conversations, curriculum design and even state funding decisions.

    Why Career Exploration Shouldn’t Wait Until High School
    By Tom Darling

    From the time we’re kids, we’re asked, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” It’s a big question — one that many students struggle to answer. Without real exposure to different career paths or learning about careers they may never have heard of, students often make choices based on limited information, missing out on opportunities that align with their skills and interests.
