[quote=Anonymous]OSSE is debating creating a "practical studies diploma" for kids with disabilities that would be more academic focused than a certificate of completion but less rigorous than a full regular diploma. Students who graduate with it wouldn't be eligible for federal financial aid for college but would be able to tell potential employers that they have a HS diploma. Like all students with disabilities, they could stay in school until 22 or until they finish all requirements, whichever comes first. What do people think of this possibility? Here's some information: https://osse.dc.gov/sites/default/files/dc/sites/osse/page_content/attachments/Proposed%20Practical%20Studies%20Diploma%20Recommendations-10.1.25.pdf[/quote]
