What’s in it

This bill provides an option for a student who is unable to meet the proficiency requirements of the senior year plus program that must otherwise be met prior to the student’s enrollment in a postsecondary course through district-to-community college sharing or a concurrent enrollment program. Under the bill, the school district shall adopt measures of college readiness jointly agreed upon by the school board and the eligible postsecondary institution through which a student may demonstrate proficiency. The bill strikes a provision that authorizes a school board to establish alternative but equivalent qualifying performance measures on its own. The bill takes effect upon enactment.

Changed since by amendments S-3028, S-3027; see Amendments.
