1 Bridging to an increase in instructional offerings for 2014-2015 1080 & Core 24 Background Proposed Timeline Action Plan Common Questions

2 Background Legislative update E2SSB 6552: Legislative discussion around increasing instructional hours at secondary level from 1,000 to 1,080 Raise graduation credit requirement from 20-credits to 24-credits March 14: Legislature shifted $97 million for the 2014-2015 school year to begin phasing in a 24-credit diploma (pivot table indicates BISD portion—enrollment dependent—to be around $350,000) 2015-2016 School year and Beyond: 1080 instructional hours and 24- credit diploma starting with the class of 2019 Cost for Families for an additional Class Bainbridge High School is a 6-period day with limited zero period offerings. Currently families have to pay for a zero period class if they also take 6-classes during the regular school day (this pays for the teacher since we are only funded for 6-classes); with the new monies appropriated from the state, there would be no fee. Only courses that would still require a fee are independent study courses outside of the existing school day schedule. Background

3 Now What…. BHS completed pre-registration in late February. Schools around the state are having similar conversations…. How can we best use the % of state allocated $97 million to enhance educational opportunities for students? 1080 & Core 24 2014-2015 2015-Beyond

7 Soliciting Interest Listserv week of April 7-11 Posting of invitation-link for Zero period interest on website week of April 7-11 Bulletin announcement week of April 7-11 Information night Monday, April 14 th, 7:00 PM BHS Deadline for submitting interest in a Zero period April 18 th Preregistration adjustment April 21-May 25 Registration reflect requests—August 1080 & Core 24

8 Soliciting Interest Have a finite list of available courses that will be open for Zero period enrollment Students select an additional class from all BHS course offerings (grade appropriate) that they would like to take during the regular school day. 1080 & Core 24

9 Invitation for Interest Examples of potential Zero P. Interest data: Example 1: A current freshman who indicates interest in taking (H) Algebra 2 Zero period and would now like to take Choir. Example 2: A current junior who indicates interest in taking Advanced French Zero period and would now like to take physics. Example 3: An incoming 9 th grader who is already signed up for health, shows interest in a zero period health and then identifies they would like to take digital photo or foods. Example 4: A current junior would like to take Digital photo I as a zero period and identifies they would like to take World Religions. 7717 1080 & Core 24

10 Invitation for Interest Sample BHS Course Description Book Course Availability for Grade Level 1080 & Core 24

11 Common Questions Will there be Bus transportation for students taking Zero Period? Students will be responsible for finding transportation for Zero Period Do I have to sign up for a Zero period class? No. This is simply an interest based opportunity. Will I for sure get one of my two selections? Many variables will play into the ability to offer selected classes; student interest, staff availability, capacity. When will I find out if I have a Zero period class? August. Once BHS receives the data, we will meld zero period interest with pre-registration data to begin to build a master schedule & configure staffing. Students will find out during registration in August. If I already signed up for a zero period during pre-registration do I need to sign up again? No. Students who already pre-registered for courses that currently exist as a zero period—jazz band, AP Statistics, Pre-Calculus, AP Spanish, Newspaper, Weight Training—do not need to complete zero period invitation. If I pre-registered for an existing zero period class, originally only registered for 5 classes, but now would like to take an additional class, do I complete the survey? Yes. You would need to complete the survey to let us know the additional course you would like to take during the school day. 1080 & Core 24
