Graduation Pathway Options Report. Summer 2020
Washington State Board of Education
The Washington Legislature directed the State Board of Education (SBE) to provide an analysis of the equity and adequacy of new graduation pathway options through stakeholder outreach and engagement. This report contains the "Second Interim Graduation Pathway Options Report--July 2020" and the "Washington Graduation Pathway Options: Stakeholder Feedback Project, Year I." These reports are responsive to the legislative directive to SBE to report to the education committees of the legislature. The State Board of Education (SBE) contracted with Strobel Consulting to collect feedback from stakeholders on graduation pathway options. Graduation pathway options are a high school graduation requirement that were implemented for the Class of 2020 (RCW 28A.655.250) and are now one of three broad requirements students must complete to earn a Washington state diploma. This report is the second report on graduation pathway options to be submitted to the education committees of the Legislature. The first graduation pathway option interim report (ED610127) was submitted in January 2020, and summarized initial information about graduation pathway options based on a survey of districts as part of the Basic Education compliance process, as well as feedback from partner organizations and the public from various sources. [The "Washington Graduation Pathway Options: Stakeholder Feedback Project, Year I" report was prepared by Strobel Consulting, LLC.]
