SPECIAL EDUCATION (SPED)

The Individualized Education Program (IEP) specifies the courses that the special education students take each year. Special education teachers counsel and assist their students to register for the appropriate courses. Special education students are enrolled in either the Individual Prescribed Program (IPP) or the diploma-route program. INDIVIDUAL PRESCRIBED PROGRAM (IPP) Students, who choose to participate in the IPP, receive no credit for most of the courses they take. The IPP for each student is developed with the involvement of the student, parent and teacher. This is done on a yearly basis. When the IPP students complete their four-year program of studies, they receive a Certificate of Completion. DIPLOMA Students, who elect to go the diploma route, must meet the graduation requirement of twenty-four (24) credits in the specified required and elective areas and must meet the school’s attendance requirement.

Career & Technical Education (CTE)

What is Career and Technical Education?

CTE is an educational program that aligns academic standards with technical knowledge and skills to prepare students for careers in current or emerging occupations and further education. CTE is the only educational program in which course content is guided by business and industry input.

What is a CTE Career Pathway?

CTE courses are categorized into six Career Pathways:

1. Arts & Communication (AC) 2. Business 3. Health Services (HS) 4. Industrial & Engineering Technology (IET) 5. Natural Resources (NR) 6. Public & Human Services (PHS)

What is a CTE Program of Study?

Each CTE Career Pathway includes several Programs of Study aligned to a specific area within that career pathway. Each Program of Study includes three or four courses in the following sequence:

Year 1: Pathway Core Course – explores a variety of occupations within a particular Career Pathway

Year 2: Cluster Course – focuses on specific occupational requirements in that area Year 3: Concentration Course (if applicable) – focuses on advanced skills and knowledge

required Any Year: Academic Course – course in a core subject area that relates to the POS

What are the requirements for a CTE Honors Recognition Diploma?

In addition to the high school graduation requirements, the following requirements must be met:

1. Maintain a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher 2. Complete a Program of Study with a B or better in each course 3. Meet or exceed proficiency on a performance-based assessment (PBA), which is 24-

hour task that requires students to analyze an industry need or problem, develop a response, and prepare a presentation defending their response.
