This bill aims to support mastery-based learning in Washington state. It amends existing law to establish a work group to examine barriers to mastery-based learning and develop a profile of a high school graduate describing the cross-disciplinary skills students should develop. The bill also requires the State Board of Education to review the graduate profile, consider changes to graduation requirements to align with the profile, and report their findings. Additionally, the bill requires the Superintendent of Public Instruction to collect data on student use of graduation pathways and the State Board of Education to survey school districts to identify barriers to implementing all graduation pathways.
