The Foundation High School Program became the default graduation program for all students entering ninth grade beginning with the 2014-2015 school year, this includes earning and endorsement, and distinguished level of achievement. This program requires taking five electives that belong to a program of study through CTE. However, the HB 165 bill passed in the 86th Legislative Session allows students with significant disabilities to earn an endorsement with a modified curriculum.
If you're wondering how to support a student with significant disabilities in CTE, we've got you covered. We'll discuss various strategies to help students with IEPS and show mastery of TEKS for state-accredited courses for CTE credit. Furthermore, we'll explore methods to modify the TEKS to support students' transition to post-secondary goals while serving them in the least restrictive environment. Our session is co-taught with Transition, CTE, and Low Incident consultants, and we'll help you improve your accountability and CCMR ratings.
We hope to see you at the session.
