<p class="x_MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
Hello All,</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
In partnership with OSPI, we are now accepting Letters of Interest to participate in the Running Start 2021 summer pilot program (<a href="https://app.leg.wa.gov/billsummary?BillNumber=2864&Year=2019"><span style="color:#0563C1">HB 2864</span></a>). The three
selected colleges will collaborate with their partner districts to offer Running Start courses (limited to 5 credits per summer) to incoming 11th and 12th grade students in Summer 2021 and Summer 2022. Additionally, seniors who are one class short of receiving
their AA may take 5 credits. Please note that the legislation mandates the maximum participation of three colleges, as well as, one community college that is located east of the crest of the Cascade mountains and another located in a county with a population
between one hundred fifteen thousand and one hundred fifty thousand. </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">

<p class="x_MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
The LOI outline and requirements are attached. We can only accept a maximum of three colleges so we encourage you to get your materials in by the priority deadline of
<b>October 27, 2020</b>. However we will continue to take materials through November 6, 2020. For questions or concerns please contact me at
<a href="mailto:jtraugott@sbctc.edu"><span style="color:#0563C1">jtraugott@sbctc.edu</span></a>. Thank you!</p>
