Case Study: Santa Fe Public Schools builds a districtwide CCR culture with SchooLinks

Santa Fe Public Schools boosts personalized plan completion to nearly 80% with SchooLinks

Santa Fe Public Schools, a culturally rich but high-need district in New Mexico, struggled to build a sustainable college and career readiness (CCR) culture. Previous platforms failed to create a cohesive, district-wide system, and leaders recognized they needed more than just technology to overcome socioeconomic barriers and drive a fundamental shift in how students plan for their futures. This led them to partner with SchooLinks for its CCR platform.

With SchooLinks, the district embedded CCR into the school day via advisory periods and individual counseling, supported by strong implementation and responsive customer support. The solution led to nearly 80% of students finalizing approved personalized learning plans in its first year. SchooLinks also facilitated a major shift towards future-focused conversations, breaking cycles of limited opportunity and setting the district on a path toward 100% plan completion and deeper family engagement.
