Illinois PaCE: Postsecondary and
Career Expectations
The Illinois PaCE Framework provides guidance to students, families, and educators on what types of experiences and information a student should have in order to make the most informed decision about college and career planning beginning in 8th grade and through high school. This framework is organized around three key areas:
· Career Exploration and Development
· Postsecondary Education Exploration, Preparation, and Selection
· Financial Aid and Literacy
We are happy to share Ridgewood High School’s PaCE framework below.
