New Future Ready PA Index Shows North Hills School District Preparing Students to be Career and College Ready
Pennsylvania’s new school evaluation tool, the Future Ready PA Index, shows North Hills School District students are acquiring the vital skills and essential knowledge needed for success in their future endeavors.

The Future Ready PA Index measures college and career readiness, such as industry-based learning and access to rigorous courses of study, student academic improvement, and growth on a variety of indicators – reducing the reliance on standardized test scores as the sole measurement of a school’s success.  

The index provides the North Hills community with a more holistic picture of our schools’ performance beyond test scores with a transparent and easy-to-use online tool.

As the tool was being developed, educators, parents, and community members from across the state, including those from NHSD, provided input to the Pennsylvania Department of Education on the measurements and evaluation indicators that should be considered for the Future Ready PA Index.

The Future Ready PA Index provides insight into the dynamic work taking place in North Hills schools.
