Board approves first reading of dual‑credit policy; cosmetology and new CTE credentials move forward
Summary
The board approved the first reading of revised dual‑credit policy IKC, with staff adding proposed courses and noting it will remain a living document. Staff also reported new CTE credentials (OSHA, ServSafe) and that cosmetology stations arrived; an open house was scheduled to recruit students.
The board advanced a living revision of the dual‑credit policy and heard updates on career and technical education (CTE) offerings.
Speaker 6 presented changes to policy IKC on dual credit and said the revision adds potential dual‑credit opportunities (examples cited: electrical classes, computer and possibly history classes) contingent on alignment with college course codes and state requirements. The board approved the first reading unanimously and staff said the policy may return for additional revisions after principals and counselors review course‑to‑college code alignments.
Separately, staff described plans to offer OSHA 10/30 and other micro‑credentials, and to pilot a service‑personnel pathway with internships and credentialing (NOCTI, ServSafe). The cosmetology program is near start‑up: salon stations were arriving and an open house was planned to attract students for the fall term.
