JCOS Graduation Expectations

Description

This app is for students at the Jefferson County Open School in Lakewood, Colorado.

Are you a Walkabout student at JCOS? Use this app to document and evaluate learning experiences in fulfillment of graduation expectations.

The Jefferson County Open School Graduation Expectations establish personal, social, and intellectual standards which all students must meet at an appropriate level of proficiency prior to graduation.

A student may utilize a variety of experiences to attain proficiency, including:

・classes within the school
・classes at other JeffCo schools
・classes at local colleges
・independent study
・group projects
・jobs & internships
・educational trips
・apprenticeships
・volunteer service work
・other learning experiences

Each learning experience is evaluated by the student in regard to personal, social and intellectual growth and is validated by the instructor of the class and by the Academic Advisor.

Students utilize their WALKABOUT (including the completion of six Passages) as a demonstration of the attainment of an appropriate level of proficiency in each of the Graduation Expectations.
