Agenda Item 32.

Title
APPROVAL OF THE ADOPTION OF REVISED POLICY 4.113 - ACADEMICALLY CHALLENGING CURRICULUM TO ENHANCE LEARNING (ACCEL) OPTIONS

Description
This policy has been revised to be aligned with changes during the 2024 legislative session.

Gap Analysis

The policy has been revised with the following changes:

  • Legislative changes removed the requirement that a performance contract is to be developed for every student who participates in an acceleration program.
  • Performance contracts may still be used if the Principal wants to, and that contract would still need to be signed by the student, parent/guardian, and Principal.


Previous Outcomes 

This policy was previously revised and adopted in 2019.



Expected Outcomes 

When approved as presented, this policy will keep the District in compliance with best practices.



Strategic Plan Goal

Pillar 2 - Every Student Supported

Priority 2.1 – Design Strong Student Supports

 


Recommendation
That the revised policy 4.113 - Academically Challenging Curriculum to Enhance Learning (Accel) Options - be approved as presented.
