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 under state regulations. The eligible students 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. The courses were piloted in the 23-24 school year and feedback was obtained regarding the courses. The courses were then updated based on the feedback. Changes included updating the language to clarify Alternative Diploma instead of Diploma through an Alternative Pathway and more examples of activities were included in select courses based on feedback from staff.
Funding: No impact for course of study adoption.
