The Future Starts Here.

Let's Go!

Our kids’ futures—helping them dream big—is what we care about most at Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools. It’s why we’re taking a big step toward the biggest, brightest of futures for all our students with CMSGO, powered by the Beable platform.

There are so many opportunities in today’s technologically savvy world. Our kids need to know all about them—especially the jobs best suited to their interests, which are the best predictor of job satisfaction and success. Along with exposure to what’s possible, they also need a personalized path to their ‘future possible selves’: the reading skills they need for the jobs they develop an interest in, as well as other essential skills.

With CMSGO—and with your support—that’s just what they’ll get. Explore CMSGO here, bookmark the site, and come back often for updates and progress reports.

‘20/20’ Is How Your Child
Goes Farther, Faster, with CMSGO!

The more students use CMSGO, the more lessons they complete, the faster they become excellent readers. And the surer their path to academic success and gainful employment. Here’s all it takes to accelerate with CMSGO: Remind your students to complete at least two 20-minute sessions each week after school hours or on the weekend. Then reading success…academic success…and future readiness are the outcomes!

About Beable

Beable is the first multidimensional platform that takes a 360-degree view of every child—their strengths and values, personal and career interests, academic gaps and goals, dreams and aspirations.

These all become part of the student’s ‘GoProfile’, which tailors all the content in CMSGO for each student: the jobs they’ll explore, the lessons needed to reach the literacy level required for those jobs… everything required to close gaps and reach goals.

  • A world-of-work curriculum takes students on a journey of self- and career awareness, while also focusing on reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills.
  • Lessons are “differentiated” by each student’s reading level, so all kids can access and benefit from the content.
  • Additional, high-interest readings are provided on topics your child selects.
  • Career exploration is personalized by your child’s interests and career-related traits.

Connecting Students to Their “Why”

When students know their strengths, hopes and dreams, interests, and goals, they set the best course for their future. CMSGO helps your students discover their “why,” so they can learn more about themselves and take charge of their future.

As they do, they explore the amazing jobs—from programmer to architect, auto mechanic to engineer, nurse to technician—that are best for them. And as they do that, they build the reading and other skills that will help them succeed at those jobs.

RIASEC and Lexile®

Two Terms You’ll Start Using All the Time

Understanding RIASEC:

RIASEC is one of the most widespread and acclaimed assessments to help people discover the careers that are most likely to satisfy them. Through CMSGO, your students will learn their three-letter RIASEC codes—whether they are Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising, or Conventional—and then explore and learn about the best-fit jobs for them.

Learn more about RIASEC by taking the quick survey.

Assessment provided courtesy of Hawaii Public Schools.

Understanding Lexile:

The Lexile is the most used framework and methodology in the world to determine reading level. The higher a Lexile level, the stronger one’s reading ability. Developed in partnership with MetaMetrics, the fully computer-adaptive Lexile assessment in Beable needs to be taken only one time during each student’s “lifetime” using the platform, as it provides unparalleled placement accuracy.

Every job requires a particular reading level. Just as CMSGO helps kids zero in on careers, it also helps develop the reading skills required by those careers. This is especially important now, as many kids are still catching up on their reading skills due to the learning loss caused by the pandemic.
