Holmes, Ed. D. Interim Superintendent Re: Second Reading: Revision of Policy IKF - General Graduation Requirements Arkansas Act 1748 of 2001 required students in grades K- 9 to meet a physical training requirement of no less than 20 minutes of physical activity three (3) times a week for all students who are physically fit and able to participate. Since that time, Act 1729 of 2003 was approved to change the grade grange from K - 9 to K - 8. Since the K - 9 grade span was written into the Board policy and regulations, revisions are required to bring our policy and regulations into compliance with state law. The policy was approved on first reading at the December 2003 meeting of the Board. The regulations were reviewed at that time. Policy IKF is presented at this time for second reading approval. bjg .!.I,' z >z 0 ~ ~ >eon !IC :c ~8 .,, r-e:.,, .,,m ~~ mm.,, LITTLE ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT NEPN CODE: IKF GENERAL EDUCATION GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS The Little Rock School District Board of Education believes that students should graduate from high school possessing the skills, knowledge, and attitudes needed for responsible citizenship, life-long learning, and productive employment in our modern economy. Programs for post-secondary preparation will be available to equip students for the advanced training that will be needed for the work of the 21 st century. The Little Rock School District will be responsible for providing the educational opportunities and experiences that will enable our students to take full advantage of post-secondary education and employment opportunities available to them after graduation. Diploma-Earning Options A student may earn a diploma from a Little Rock School District high school in one of four ways. Each has different requirements and different numbers of required units of credit. 1. Diploma from any of the five high schools for completion of the required 24 units for the classes of 2002 and 2003
or the required 26 units for the class of 2004 and after. 2. Diploma from any of the five high schools for completion of the Little Rock Scholars curriculum of 27 units for the class of 2003
or 28 units, including at least eight Pre-Advanced Placement or Advanced Placement courses, for the class of 2004 and after. Hall High School students may take University Studies courses as substitutes for Pre-Advanced Placement and/or Advanced Placement courses. 3. Diploma earned at the Accelerated Learning Center for completion of the 21 units required by the State of Arkansas. 4. Diploma with waived or altered requirements established by an Individual Education Program (IEP) team for a student identified with disabilities. Even though the graduation requirements may be changed by the Board of Education during the time a student is enrolled in high school, the requirements established for a student's graduation class (assuming graduation in four years of high school) are those he/she must meet, even though he/she may require more than four years to earn the necessary number of units. Units of credit will generally be earned in grades nine through twelve, except that one unit of Algebra I (or higher-level mathematics) and Level I (or higher level) of foreign language may be earned in grade eight. High school courses taken before grade eight will not satisfy a unit of credit toward graduation. (See policy IKEC for list of creditearning options.) LITTLE ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT NEPN CODE: IKF (continued) Transfer Students All transfer students must meet the graduation requirements of the Little Rock School District in order to receive a diploma. The LRSD high school will accept transfer credits and grades for students who previously attended Arkansas .high schools that are accredited by the Arkansas Department of Education or out-of-state high schools that are accredited by their state department of education and/or a regional accreditation organization such as the North Central Association of Schools and Colleges. Additionally, students who transfer into a Little Rock School District high school from a home school must attend at least two semesters in order to receive a high school diploma (see IKED and IKED-R). Former home school students must attend at least four semesters in order to be eligible for rank-in-class (see IKC-R). Foreign Exchange students who complete the senior year in good standing may, at the discretion of the principal, participate in the graduation ceremony. Senior-Year Enrollment Requirements Students participating in dual-credit courses with local colleges/universities during their senior year must be enrolled in high school courses at least half time for their senior year (four units of credit) or full-time during the fall semester in order to receive a diploma from a Little Rock School District high school. This enrollment standard is required regardless of how many credits a student may need to satisfy graduation requirements. (See IKEC-R1 for regulations governing dual-credit enrollments.) Magnet Program Seal Students who participate in the District's high school magnet programs may meet the magnet curriculum requirements through completion of the designated Career Focus courses established for each magnet. In order to receive a Magnet Seal, magnet students must complete fill the requirements of the magnet program. Students transferring into a magnet program after the freshman year may earn a diploma from that high school, but they will not earn the Magnet Seal. Arkansas Scholars Seal A special Arkansas Scholars seal will be affixed to the diploma and transcript of a student who meets the following standards established by the Arkansas Scholars program: 1. Earn a grade of "C" or above in all courses. 2. Achieve a 95 percent or better attendance record for each of the four years of high school. 2 lo< n 0 "z' C) ~ i "' LITTLE ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT NEPN CODE: IKF (continued) 3. Complete high school in eight consecutive semesters. 4. Complete successfully at least three units in science, three units in mathematics, three units of social studies, and four units in English. Honors Diploma Seal A special Honors Seal will be affixed to the diploma and transcript of a student who meets the following standards: 1. Completes the units required for the Little Rock Scholars curriculum, which includes and goes beyond the requirements of the Arkansas Higher Education Coordinating Board for unconditional admission to any public twoyear or four-year institution of higher education in Arkansas and which includes, but goes beyond, the requirements for eligibility for the Arkansas Challenge Scholarship. The Little Rock Scholars curriculum also reflects the admission requirements of the most competitive universities in the United States of America. 2. Successfully completes a minimum of eight Pre-Advanced Placement or Advanced Placement courses over a four-year period. Hall High School students may take University Studies courses as substitutes for PreAdvanced Placement and/or Advanced Placement courses. Other approved dual-credit courses offered to LRSD students in collaboration with area colleges/ universities may also be substituted for the Pre-AP or AP requirement. 3. Earns a grade-point-average of at least 3.5. Students designated for valedictory or salutatory recognition must have completed the Little Rock Scholars curriculum. Recognition of Graduates Each high school may design its own traditions to commend and celebrate the achievements of the following sets of graduates: 1. the valedictorian and salutatorian
2. students earning an overall average of 3.5 or above
3. students earning Magnet Program, Arkansas Scholars, Little Rock Scholars, and/or Honors Diploma Seals
4. members of the National Honor Society or similar honors organization
5. scholarship recipients
6. students with perfect attendance throughout high school
and 7. students whose other achievements are worthy of special recognition. 3 LITTLE ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT NEPN CODE: IKF (continued) Participation in Graduation Ceremony In order to be a participant in the graduation ceremony, the student must be within one unit of completing the graduation requirements and must have paid the tuition for the one-half or one unit to be taken in summer school (or, alternately, in another approved credit-earning program). All high school students and their parents will be informed in writing of this expectation when course lists and graduation requirements are published for the spring registration process. Principals will make a determination of potential graduates at the end of the junior year and each quarter of the students' senior year and inform students and their parents immediately if it is determined that the student is in danger of not graduating. Such students will be advised of all the appropriate credit-earning options, including, but not limited to, evening high school, summer school, correspondence courses, online courses, credit-by-examination, and placement at the Accelerated Learning Center. Award of Diploma The award of the high school diploma will not be made until all graduation requirements are met.

Attachments: Voluntary Plan MSAP Board Resolution LITTLE ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT VOLUNTARY PLAN January 2004 The Little Rock School District (LRSD) plan meets the statutory requirements of Title VI of the Improving America's Schools Act of 1994, which authorizes the Magnet Schools Assistance Program (MSAP). This plan approved by the Little Rock School District Board of Education in January 2004 will be submitted to the U.S. Department of Education for consideration in conjunction with the District's application for MSAP funding. Under this plan, dependent upon funding from the MSAP, the LRSD will support five magnet schools during the 2004-2007 MSAP funding cycle. One LRSD high school, Hall High School, will be redesigned as a school-wide magnet program. In addition, four existing magnet schools will be significantly revised to promote increased levels of student diversity and maximize students' access to innovative and rigorous coursework and programs: J. A. Fair Magnet High School, McClellan Magnet High School, Mabelvale Magnet Middle School and Henderson Magnet Middle School. These magnet schools will carry out the six objectives of the Magnet Schools Assistance Program. They will: 1) eliminate, reduce, or prevent minority group isolation
2) develop and implement projects that will assist in achieving systemic reforms and providing all students the opportunity to meet challenging State academic content standards and student academic achievement
3) develop and design innovative educational methods and practices that promote diversity and increase choices in public secondary schools and public educational programs
4) provide courses of instruction that will substantially strengthen the knowledge of academic subjects and the grasp of tangible and marketable vocational, technological and professional skills of students attending the schools
5) improve the capacity of the district, including through professional development, to continue operating these magnet schools at a high performance level after Federal funding for the magnet schools is terminated
6) and ensure that all students enrolled in the magnet school programs have equitable access to high quality education that will enable the students to succeed academically and continue with postsecondary education or productive employment. Little Rock School District's 2004-2007 Voluntary Plan Strategies The linchpin of the District's voluntary plan strategy is to attract the significant numbers of non-minority students already residing in the Little Rock School District attendance zone -- who are currently attending non-public schools, being home schooled or attending public schools outside the LRSD District -- back into the district's federally funded magnet middle and high schools. All five of the federally funded magnet schools will be attendance zone specialty magnets. The federally funded magnet school programs serve every student enrolled in the school by virtue of their neighborhood attendance zone assignment. These schools are also available to students seeking school options or choices outside of their attendance zone schools: students from the neighboring Pulaski County Special School District (PCSSD) as ~?< >:r:: ~~ g,!! ::oz ZG'l !CU) .zm.. . majority-to-minority (M-to-M) transfer students.1 The PCSSD continues to operate under an active desegregation court ordered plan that stipulates the M-to-M transfer process with the LRSD. The two-pronged strategy that the LRSD plans to use to achieve its ambitious voluntary plan goals and objectives is as follows: Innovative, standards-based curriculum design and implementation, to include the development and school-wide infusion of the instructional themes, supported and complemented by an array of thematically focused high interest magnet courses, related professional development and parent involvement initiatives, and collaborations with outside partners Aggressive and targeted outreach and recruitment campaigns designed to attract a more diverse student body than is currently attending these schools. The LRSD schools are comprised of 73 percent minorities (Black, Hispanics, others (including American Indians and Asians) and 27 percent non-minorities (White). In contrast, the Little Rock community is comprised of a much larger percentage of nonminority residents (65 percent) and a much smaller percentage of minority residents (35 percent) than the LRSD. LRSD Students Attending Non-Public Schools. Research was also conducted on the non-public (private and parochial) schools in the area encompassed by the LRSD. There are 26 non-public schools located within the boundaries of the LRSD (parochial and non-denominational). According to the 2000 census data, these schools enroll a total of 6,405 of the city's 13,223 total white student population. As a whole, Little Rock private schools have added 135 students each year since 1970, according to the Census Bureau.2 The Arkansas Democrat Gazette reported on October 26, 2003, that since the census was taken, the LRSD lost almost 600 more white students. Among the 250 largest U.S. cities, Little Rock now ranks 9th with the largest proportions of their white students in private schools (48%).3 The 2000 Census data reveal that among blacks, 4 percent attend private schools. Substantial numbers of parents are electing not to take advantage of the public education system, and are instead incurring the expense of a private school education for their children. By choosing a private school education for their children, many nonminority families in the Little Rock community have segregated their children from the predominantly minority and relatively poor students attending the public schools. 1 The M-to-M Stipulation dated August 26, 1986 provides agreement between the Little Rock School District and the Pulaski County Special School District for voluntary majority-to-minority interdistrict transfers. 2 Arkansas Democrat Gazette, Tuesday, October 28, 2003 3 Source: 2000 Census Compliance with Civil Rights Requirements The Little Rock School District assures the United States Department of Education and the Office of Civil Rights (OCR) that the District's Voluntary Plan and the accompanying MSAP proposal complies with requirements of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution in that its use of race in the selection of students to attend its five magnet schools is "narrowly tailored." The following section specifies how the Voluntary Plan -- and the Little Rock School District Magnet Schools Assistance Program overall -- is responsive to the five considerations established by the Office for Civil Rights. Whether the district tried or seriously considered race-neutral alternatives and determined that those measures have not been or would not be similarly effective, before resorting to race-conscious action The Little Rock School District MSAP initiative includes zoned attendance specialty magnets (J.A. Fair High, McClellan High, Hall High, Henderson Middle and Mabelvale Middle). The student admissions process for these magnet schools is designed to recognize attendance zone school precedence and to provide educational choice options that maintain student diversity to the extent practicable as stated in the LRSD Board of Education policy, School Choice - NEPN: JCA (see attachment). Zoned attendance magnets have clearly delineated attendance zones from which they draw their student populations, such that race is not used at all as a criterion in admissions. Every student residing within the attendance zone is admitted to the school should they so choose to enroll. The linchpin of the strategy in the case of zoned attendance magnets is to design, conduct, and monitor a targeted and aggressive outreach and recruitment effort to attract the populations of students needed to achieve the school-specific enrollment goals. This outreach and recruitment strategy is described in great depth in the Plan of Operation, and again in the Quality of Project Design section. Providing students with choice is a key component of the plan. School choice is viewed as a healthy method of providing opportunity for students to take advantage of unique curriculum offerings, special emphasis and program activities. The attendance specialty magnet schools are available to students seeking school options or choices outside of their attendance zone schools. Students from the neighboring district of Pulaski County may participate in these specialty magnets as M-to-M transfer students. If the number of out of zone applicants exceeds the number of seats available, a weighted random assignment process will be used to identify those students who will be assigned. Criteria indicators considered in the weighted random process include the student's race, achievement test performance and economic status (free and reduced lunch). A computerized lottery will identify the student population of these specialty magnet schools' attendance zones and then increase the likelihood that students of opposite attributes will be selected thereby diversifying the school's population. The selection process will be random. Academic examinations are not used in the selection of students for the specialty magnet programs. The scope and flexibility of the use of race, including whether it is subject to a waiver There are several aspects of the LRSD student assignment process that demonstrate its flexibility. First, because in our District we believe that from time to time students face situations beyond their control, Appeals Committee transfers are considered for "Medical Hardship or Extenuating Circumstances." An appeals committee composed of five volunteers meet monthly to consider any requests submitted. The members serve staggered 3-year terms. The committee is composed of parents, teachers, or community representatives. Second, staff preference transfers are provided to children of LRSD employees who reside in the LRSD. Children of LRSD employees will be permitted to transfer to the school in which the employee is assigned. These assignments are based on space availability. Third, Act 624/1105 transfers provides students of any person who is a public school employee in one district and a resident of another school district the opportunity to be enrolled in and to attend school in the district in which the parent is an employee. The manner in which race is used, that is, whether race determines eligibility for a program or whether race is just one factor in the decision making process We have established earlier that in the case of our zoned attendance magnets, race is only one criterion for admission in the weighted lottery process. The duration of the use of race and whether it is subject to periodic review The Little Rock School District assures the Office for Civil Rights that it will formally review, on a periodic basis, any steps it may take which involve the use of race to determine whether the use of race is still needed, or should be modified. The degree and type of burden imposed on students of other races As noted above, the LRSD MSAP magnet initiative has designated five sites as federal magnet schools for the 2004 - 2007 program cycle, representing a broad array of program options and educational levels. In the event that a magnet school becomes significantly over-enrolled, parents may exercise the school choice options for other specialty magnet schools, stipulation/original magnet schools, or other attendance zone schools. Procedures are established that enable students to make application to enroll in a school outside of their designated attendance zone. Parents and students are informed of available options. RESOLUTION WHEREAS, improving the academic achievement of all students and maintaining an equitable, nondiscriminatory learning environment will forever be the core of the Little Rock School District's mission
and WHEREAS, despite past efforts, there remain schools within the District where minority group enrollment exceeds 75%, thus constituting minority group isolation
and WHEREAS, school choice is viewed as a healthy method of providing opportunity for students to take advantage of unique curriculum offerings, special emphasis and program activities
and WHEREAS, magnet schools expand educational choices, provide meaningful courses of study to which students can relate and set high expectations for all students for further education and the world of work
and WHEREAS, magnet schools enhance parental and community involvement and encourage the use of community resources, thus improving the effectiveness of education in our District
and NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Little Rock School District Board of Education endorses and approves the Voluntary Plan for submission with the LRSD 2004 MSAP proposal to the U. S. Department of Education. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, we have hereunto set our hands on behalf of the Little Rock School District Board of Education on this 22nd day of January, 2004.
