So excited for the clubtwentyone webinar TOMORROW, Monday, August 11th!
The Alternative Pathway to a High School Diploma in California is for students with cognitive disabilities, including intellectual disability, Down syndrome, etc., whose IEP teams determine they qualify for California Alternate Assessments. This pathway helps students earn a state-recognized diploma through instruction aligned to core content connectors and alternate achievement standards. The intent is for students to be included and educated alongside their typically developing non-disabled peers to the greatest extent, in general education classes, co-taught classes, electives, and extracurricular school activities, while focusing on academic skills that prepare them for life skills and success after graduation.
