9 The Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI) is the primary agency charged with overseeing K-12 public education in Washington state. Led by State School Superintendent Chris Reykdal, OSPI works with the state s 295 school districts to administer basic education programs and implement education reform on behalf of more than one million public school students. OSPI is housed in the Old Capitol Building in Olympia. Vision Every student ready for career, college, and life. Mission To provide funding, resources, tools, data and technical assistance that enable educators to ensure students succeed in our public schools, are prepared to access post-secondary training and education, and are equipped to thrive in their careers and lives. Performance Indicators From the vision and mission are OSPI s performance indicators. These measures of success serve to guide our work across the K-12 public education system. Superintendents, principals, counselors, and other educators across our state are using evidence-based practices and closing the gap interventions in their work each day. Data analytics, data charts, and helpful resources for Kindergarten Preparedness to Graduation Rates to Postsecondary Enrollment make up the equity analytics for K-12 and higher education systems to utilize. College enrollment data for 4-year colleges and 2-year colleges is disaggregated first by all college going nationally and then by WA State Public institutions. The data is also shown by 4-year and 2- year colleges both separately. In addition, further disaggregation is by 2-year colleges in Academic Transfer Programs and in Workforce Programs.

10 HIGH SCHOOL & BEYOND PLAN The High School & Beyond Plan, a graduation requirement, helps students get the most out of high school and think about their future. Students work with school counselors and advisors to create their own individual plan, the personalized pathway", throughout high school and revise their plan annually to accommodate changing interests or postsecondary goals on what they expect to do the year following graduation from high school. The postsecondary aspirations may include pathways for application to four-year colleges or universities, two-year community or technical colleges, apprenticeship programs, industry standard certificate programs, military training, or on the job training. The High School & Beyond Plan revolves around three questions: Who am I?, What can I become?, and How do I become that? A High School & Beyond Plan includes: an identification of career goals, aided by a skills and interest assessment; an identification of educational goals; a four-year plan for course-taking that fulfills state and local graduation requirements and aligns with the student's career and educational goals; and by the end of twelfth grade, a current resume or activity log that provides a written compilation any activities/athletics, leadership opportunities, work experience, or community service that can be used for writing personal statements, application essays, or scholarship applications. The High School & Beyond Plan is used to guide the student's high school experience and prepare him or her for postsecondary education or training and career. The plan is initiated for each student during the seventh or eighth grade and is updated each year to reflect high school assessments, review of transcripts, and assess progress toward identified goals. In many cases the plan is revised as necessary for changing interests, goals, and needs, and identify available interventions and academic support, courses, or both, that enable students who have not met the high school graduation standard to do so. The Personalized Pathway Requirement answers these questions: How does my career interest connect with the courses I am taking or plan to take? How do the courses I am taking or plan to take connect with my career pathway or college major? What are the steps I need to take to reach my postsecondary plan successfully? Who will I work with about my Personalized Pathway Requirement, that is based on my High School & Beyond Plan? What is my timeline for making a decision about my Personalized Pathway? What if I change my mind along the way? Who will I talk with about revising my Personalized Pathway and HS? Resources OSPI State Board of Education 9

Degree Options Currently, community and technical colleges offer 74 applied bachelor s degrees at 28 colleges: Bellevue College Bellingham Technical College Cascadia College Centralia College Clark College Clover Park Technical College Columbia Basin College Grays Harbor College Green River College Highline College Lake Washington Institute of Technology North Seattle College Olympic College Peninsula College Pierce College Renton Technical College Seattle Central College Skagit Valley College South Seattle College Spokane Falls Community College Wenatchee Valley College Yakima Valley College For a complete list of bachelor s degrees offered at community and technical colleges, visit 11

13 Applied Baccalaureate Tuition Tuition rates are roughly double the cost of regular community and technical college credits. See community and technical college tuition chart. University and College Transfer More and more students get started on a bachelor s degree with an associate transfer degree. Students get a high quality undergraduate experience and save money by starting at a community or technical college and transferring to a Washington four-year college, branch campus, university center, or applied baccalaureate program. Associate transfer degrees Several options are available, so students should work closely with an advisor to choose the right degree and classes for their educational and career goals. Students should contact the four-year college or university of their choice to fully understand and meet degree requirements before transferring. See Transfer Degree Inventory chart. University Centers and Transfer Partnerships Students can earn an associate transfer degree at a community or technical college and then stay on campus to complete a bachelor's degree from one of our many four-year college or university partners. Options are subject to change. See University Centers and Transfer Partnerships chart. High School Diploma Options Community and technical colleges offer three ways to earn a high school diploma. 1. Attend Running Start, earn an associate degree, request HS diploma from the college 2. Age 21 years or older, earn an associate degree, request HS diploma from the college (may require financial aid) 3. Earn a HS diploma from the college through the high school completion program (may require financial aid) I-BEST Washington s nationally renowned Integrated Basic Education and Skills Training program (I-BEST) 12 uses a team-teaching approach to combine adult education classes with regular, credit-bearing academic or job training classes so students get through school and into jobs faster. Project I-DEA With I-DEA, English language learners who face the largest language gaps are learning English quickly and in practical ways. Like I-BEST, this project uses an integrated, teamteaching approach so students learn English in tandem with job skills and life skills. Classes are flipped : Students learn basic words and ideas online and cement their knowledge in class with the aid of instructors and peers. Computers and 24- hour internet access allow students to learn topics that matter most to them, anytime, anywhere. Competency-based education Many adult education courses are competencybased; students move through adult education into pre-college (remedial) or college-level courses based on knowledge gained rather than time spent in a classroom. Students move as quickly through courses as their competencies take them. High School Equivalency (HSE) Many people who did not finish high school have the same knowledge and skills as those who did graduate. By taking and passing a series of HSE tests, adults can demonstrate they have acquired the same level of knowledge. Washington state uses the four-part GED tests for its HSE test. Most colleges and employers accept an HSE credential as being equivalent to a high school diploma. SBCTC oversees the HSE testing program for the state of Washington. Those who meet the eligibility requirements may take the HSE tests at official test centers located throughout the state. You can find a local test center through the GED Testing Service. High School 21+ High School 21+ is a competency-based high school diploma offered at Washington s community and technical colleges for adults who are at least 21 years old. Advisors look at transcripts and knowledge gained from life experience, and work with students to craft an educational plan to fill gaps. To receive a diploma, students must demonstrate competency in reading, writing, and math in the context of science, history, government, occupational studies, and digital literacy.

14 For general questions, contact Lou Sager at Sports and Recreation Community colleges provide a variety of enrichment activities and programs, including intercollegiate athletics. Sports include basketball, baseball, cross country, golf, softball, soccer, tennis, track and field, volleyball and wrestling. Recognizing the time commitment of studentathletes, colleges may fund tuition Grants-in-Aid through scholarships of up to 40 percent of tuition costs. Visit the Northwest Athletic Conference website at for details. Disability Student Services Campus disability support service offices ensure equal access to educational programs and services by providing consultation on accommodations (placement testing, classroom, assistive technology, and more) for students with disabilities who are otherwise qualified for college. The rights of students with disabilities are different in college from what they were in high school. It is important for high school students and their parents to plan appropriately for their students transitions to post-secondary institutions. Compared to services at public schools, the services provided by post-secondary institutions may seem minimal. To be eligible for disability-related services, students must have a disability as defined by the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of Under the ADA and Section 504, a person has a disability if he or she has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more of the major life activities (walking, standing, seeing, speaking, hearing, sitting, breathing, and taking care of oneself). Colleges and universities are not required to provide special educational services, therapies or curriculum modifications that fundamentally alter the nature of the program or class. However, colleges and universities routinely offer some services to all students that may be beneficial to some students with disabilities, including tutoring, personal counseling, writing coaching, health and wellness programs, study skills, and time management training. Financial Aid Community and technical colleges award federal, state, college-based grants, and work-study based on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The community and technical college system adopted a uniform priority financial aid deadline of March 15. Colleges widely recommend students planning to attend fall quarter 2017 adhere to the timeline set for College Bound students (February 1). Those planning to attend winter or spring 2019 should also apply for aid by the March 15, 2018 priority deadline. See Admissions and Financial Aid chart. Scholarships A variety of scholarships may be available from each college based on financial need, program of study or major, academic merit, leadership or community service. Many colleges offer scholarships through their foundations or list scholarships at their websites. Most deadlines for fall 2018 scholarships for graduating high school seniors offered by community and technical college foundations will be in February, March, and April Tuition Waivers Certain populations are eligible for full or partial reduction of tuition. Tuition waivers vary by campus, so check with college registration offices. Some examples: Oregon border county residents, military veterans, senior citizens, higher education employees, active duty military/washington National Guard, children of deceased or disabled law enforcement officers and firefighters, families of fallen soldiers and families of disabled veterans. 13
