Summary

The bill requires every student to develop an Individual Graduation Plan by the end of eighth grade with help from a parent or guardian and a school counselor or career coach. By tenth grade the plan must outline the courses needed to meet graduation and post‑secondary goals, and any changes must be discussed with and approved by the parent. The aim is to give students a clearer pathway to college or careers.
