WHAT DO I NEED TO GRADUATE??
High School and Beyond Plan (HSBP)
The High School and Beyond Plan (HSBP) is a personalized planning process that helps students – along with their families and teachers – navigate high school and prepare for their future. Each student starts their HSBP in 7th grade, and it’s updated every year to reflect their changing interests, goals, and needs. The HSBP includes a high school course taking plan that aligns with a student’s postsecondary plans, any supports the student may need to graduate, an activity log that includes a student’s extracurricular experiences, and evidence the student has received financial aid information for postsecondary programs.
