Transition Plan
The Commissioner adopted a transition plan to implement and administer the amendments made by HB 5, replacing the MHSP, RHSP, and DAP with the foundation high school program beginning with the 2014-2015 school year. A student who entered the ninth grade before the 2014-2015 school year must be permitted to complete the curriculum requirements for high school graduation under:
– Foundation High School Program – Distinguished Achievement Program – Recommended High School Program – Minimum High School Program
§74.1021 (Adopted 12-13-2013)
©2014, Region One Education Service Center
Foundation High School Program (2013-2014)
The Commissioner adopted a rule that would allow a small group of students to graduate under the FHSP. (22 ½ credits)
• The proposed rules will only apply to the small group of seniors who are able to complete the coursework required to graduate under the Foundation High School Program in 2013-2014 and who choose this option. This includes students who complete the required coursework during the summer of 2014, but not thereafter.
• The student will not have the option to earn an endorsement, the distinguished level of achievement, or a performance acknowledgment.
“I strongly encourage students and their parents to consider the benefits of taking additional advanced math and science courses, and to fully research required or recommended coursework for admission to any higher education institution they may have interest in attending."
