Summary:
|
Beginning in the school year 23/24, the District was required to implement new regulations regarding issuing an Alternative High School Diploma to students who are eligible.
Students who would take these courses are those who entered grade 9 in the 22-23 school year or later if they are eligible to take the state alternate assessments and they are required to complete state standards-aligned coursework.
This course of study is standards-aligned and meets the requirements outlined in education code 51225.31.
Several courses were piloted in the 23-24 school year and feedback was obtained regarding the courses which were ultimately board approved in April 2024.
Feedback from multiple staff is that additional coursework in mathematics and health education are requested.
These courses will be piloted in the 24/25 school year. |
