Other provisions

• The board may award a diploma to a student posthumously indicating graduation with the class with which the student was expected to graduate.

• High school diplomas shall be awarded to students with disabilities in compliance with Kentucky Administrative Regulation.

Technology Competency

• In order to graduate, students must demonstrate performance competency in technology.

Course Sequence

• All students are required to complete a minimum of four (4) trimesters in an academic or career interest based on the student’s individual learning plan.

Performance-Based Credits

• The District shall accept performance-based credits toward graduation in addition to traditional Carnegie units. It is the responsibility of the high schools to develop performance descriptors and assessments for performance-based courses. Performance-based credits will only be accepted by the Board if previously approved by the SBDM Council to determine the appropriateness of the content and courses for performance-based credit. SBDM Councils may choose to allow performance- based credits for only some content areas and not others. If no SBDM exists, the Board will accept performance-based credits if approved by the Superintendent/designee.
