  28. Additional Strategies • Explore the development of career and technical education program options with engaging curriculum and content instruction • Recognize schools with higher 5 year graduation rates • Address IEP diploma policy to limit its use to students with the most severe disabilities

  29. Expanding State’s Technical Assistance Resources • Parent Centers – statewide (11 new) – 2 continuing • Mediation • State RTI Technical Assistance Center • PBIS Statewide Technical Assistance Center • Schools with Effective Instructional Practices for Students with Disabilities
