AB 2306 PROCEDURE
AB 2306 PROCEDURE
First, the Counselor must hold a meeting with the student and parent/guardian to explain the program. If the student agrees that they want to participate in the AB 2306 plan, then the Counselor proceeds to the next step.
At the meeting, the following AB 2306 paperwork needs to be completed by the Counselor with the student and parent/guardian.
AB 2306 Form – signed and dated by all parties (student, parent/guardian, Counselor)
School Transcript – a transcript indicating that the student transferred from a juvenile court school (at least one time) after their second year of high school.
Following the meeting, the Counselor will provide the original AB 2306 paperwork to the teacher to place in the student file. In addition, the Counselor will upload a digital copy to the 'AB Plan Documents' folder in StudentTrac, update the planning guide to AB 2306, and notify the Accountability Department by email (Accountability@skyrocket-ed.com).
Once Accountability verifies that paperwork has been uploaded and the student grade level has been confirmed by the Counselor under the AB 2306 plan, Accountability will then check off the ‘AB Documentation Complete’ box in the StudentTrac Grad Check window.

If a student has been approved for AB 2306 at a previous high school, the Counselor will need to obtain that AB 2306 documentation. If the student and parent/guardian agree to remain on the AB 2306 plan, the Counselor will only need to complete the first page of the AB 2306 Notification Letter. Then, the Counselor will provide both (the signed AB 2306 Notification Letter and AB 2306 documentation from the previous school) to the teacher to place in the student file. In addition, the Counselor will upload a digital copy to the 'AB Plan Documents' folder in StudentTrac, update the planning guide to AB 2306, and notify the Accountability Department by email (Accountability@skyrocket-ed.com).
