Help with time management by giving them the homework for the week on Monday and letting them know when each one is due.  Not all the time but maybe just once every 6 weeks

Expose students to successful people who look like them. Our staff is majority white--it's great when we tell our stories and obviously helpful for kids but they need to see successful people who look like them and hear their stories.

Tell your college process story. I tell my students about how I wanted to be a physical therapist in high school but then once I took science classes I realized that those were not my strength and that I enjoyed literature more. Get them to reflect on what their strengths are.

Have a real discussion with students (in advisory and in class) on the why they should look into extra curriculars. It can be scary to step out of your comfort zone, but it helps to be competitive in the application pool.

Making them struggle through learning, not just giving them the answer.  Every week make sure i have one problem where they know i will not give them the answer and they will struggle and they will have to be resourceful (using peers, other avenues to come to the answer)

Teach the growth mindset. Focus on the language your students use and correct them every time they use fixed mindset words. Example: I can't do this-->I can't do this YET. This is too hard-->Maybe I should try a different strategy

Also develop a concrete plan for students who want to skip the next level of math

Stop teaching to the test and make students fall in love with learning. If they fall in love with learning they will take more ownership over your class rather than just come to class knowing they have to do well on a test

Show what being academically successful looks like (and emphasize that they can achieve it!)

Maybe mimic an assignment or a lesson so that they have an idea of what college courses may be like (be careful not to simply "lecture")
-help them to learn how to be a self-sufficient student when there are not many guidelines on an assignment
