Survey Participation Request: High School Diploma

7/17/2015

 
The Arc of Indiana is seeking input from families and students enrolled in special education, as well as advocates and professionals in the field of special education, regarding proposed changes to Indiana’s high school diploma structure. Your input will help the Core 40 subcommittee, which was established by the Indiana Career Council, make recommendations to the State Board of Education. Click here to take the survey. 

A full background of the survey, as provided by The Arc of Indiana, is below.
 
As part of the Indiana Career Council, the Core 40 subcommittee was established to make recommendations to the State Board of Education. Those recommendations may include:

  • Changing course requirements for the Core 40 diploma
  • Changing the types of diplomas offered in Indiana
  • Analysis of need in Indiana for a Career Technical Education (CTE) diploma and/or CTE offerings

The subcommittee has met over the past few months to discuss these issues and has put forth proposals to look at different diplomas in Indiana:

  • A new College and Career Ready diploma to replace the Core 40 diploma
  • An Indiana Honors Diploma to replace the current academic and technical honors diploma
  • A Workforce Ready diploma to replace the general education diploma

The Department of Education recently conducted a survey to provide an opportunity for key stakeholders to review the new diploma structure and offer input. The Arc of Indiana strongly believes that the key stakeholders affected by these changes, students and families, also need to be provided an opportunity to give input.

The survey developed by the Department of Education was focused primarily on success/failure in the college or workforce environment. Although this is important, we believe there are other important questions to ask students and families; thus, we have developed a survey to gather input.

The decisions being made over the next 9 months regarding diplomas will have a significant impact on the lives of students. We hope families and students, as well as professionals in the field and advocates, will take a moment to review the current diploma structure, the proposed diploma structure and participate in The Arc of Indiana High School Diploma Survey.
