The SCDE has set aside a portion of EEDA funds for the Preparing College- and Career-Ready Graduates Competitive Grants to help schools implement evidence-based strategies and/or models specifically designed to address the academic and career development needs of students with proven academic deficiencies so that, upon completing high school, these students will possess the knowledge, skills, and life and career characteristics of the Profile of the South Carolina Graduate.
