<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Colleagues:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I hope this finds you well!  This week and next week State Board staff and I will join K-12 and higher education partners to work to develop collaborative
<b>guidelines and considerations for districts and higher education partners specifically related to dual credit and postsecondary transition impacts on K12 students for the 2020-21 AY</b>. Critical to this work will be to ensure these guidelines focus on serving
 students furthest from educational justice while centering anti-racist practices.  The guidance is intended to help districts as they plan for the fall and so we have to move quickly, with
<b>the target date for final guidance being early August</b>.  Yikes, I know!</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Executive leadership, including Jan, as well as community based organization partners, state agencies, and professional associations met last Friday during the regularly scheduled Coordinating Pathways to Higher Education meeting. The participants
 in the meeting on Friday identified the following topics as guidance for the workgroup to begin with:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in; text-indent:-.25in; mso-list:l2 level1 lfo2">

<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Additional topics were discussed and were identified as well underway in other areas. The executive leadership group agreed this work should be referenced or acknowledged in the guidelines, but additional guidance should not be developed
 for these topics:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in; text-indent:-.25in; mso-list:l2 level1 lfo2">
<span style="mso-list:Ignore">-<span style="font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"">

</span></span>FAFSA/WASFA completion work.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Additionally, there were two topics identified but tabled for the moment. Further discussion will occur on July 31st at the next standing meeting of executive leaders to determine if elements should be included in the guidance:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in; text-indent:-.25in; mso-list:l0 level1 lfo4">
<span style="mso-list:Ignore">-<span style="font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"">
