April Dunn Act Pathway Adaptation

Every Jump Start graduation pathway can be adapted for students with disabilities who meet April Dunn Act eligibility criteria.

Students must complete nine credits of CTE courses from the courses listed in the pathway. The IEP team has the authority to determine the credentialing level a student must achieve for the purposes of graduation (analogous to using individual performance criteria to meet EOC requirements for the purposes of graduation).

IEP teams with questions about how to adapt this graduation pathway for their student should contact JumpStart@la.gov.
