A special education student exempted via the IEP process. 2. A student who has transferred into a WCSD high school as a junior or senior and cannot earn the 4th mathematics or 3rd science credit during the school year in their remaining school years before graduation. Determination of whether a student can earn the 4th mathematics and/or 3rd science credit will be made jointly in a conference with the student, parent, counselor, and principal or assistant principal within 10 days of enrollment. 3. If the student, the parent or legal guardian of the student and an administrator or a counselor at the school in which the student is enrolled mutually agree to a modified course of study for the student and that modified course of study satisfies at least the requirements for a standard high school diploma or an adjusted diploma, as applicable.

Superintendent's Highlights Washoe County School District (WCSD) Graduation Rate The District again had the strongest performance ever on the graduation rate. The WCSD has eclipsed the 85% graduation rate marks. This includes a significant narrowing of the achievement gap among all student populations. WCSD Eliminates its General Fund Budget Deficit and Passes a Balanced Budget The board adopted a goal to eliminate the District’s structural deficit within three years. In June, the board accomplished this one full year early when it passed a balanced budget for the General Fund for Fiscal Year 2019-20. This was the district's first balanced budget in 16 years and reflects WCSD's efforts to reduce General Fund costs by over $60 million over the last three years. WCSD is the first school district in the United States to implement priority based budgeting, a national best practice for government budgeting. WCSD Earns National Recognition for Financial Excellence For the 18th consecutive year, the WCSD has been recognized for responsible fiscal practices by the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA).
