  • Click the arrow icon to open the Competency section. This section displays the student's progress toward meeting competency requirements. Read documentation found on the Ohio Department of Education's website for details regarding the ways in which a student can demonstrate competency. In general, a student must achieve a minimum score of 684 on the ELA2 and the ALG1 or MTH1 End of Course exams. After two unsuccessful attempts, a student can meet competency through alternate options. These alternate options display only after a student has completed two attempts at the End of Course exam and has not reached the minimum score in one or the other subject area. The alternative options are met when the student has at least one of the appropriate program codes entered in Special Programs.
  • Click the arrow icon to open the Readiness section. This section displays the student's progress toward meeting readiness requirements. There are 12 seals that can be earned to demonstrate readiness. A student must earn two seals, one of which must be a state-level seal.
    
    • Seals that a student plans to earn will display as "planned" under the status column when the seal's plans to earn program code is entered on the Special Program page.
    • Earned seals will display as earned under the status column when the seal's program code is entered on the Special Program page.
    • Not all seals have earned program codes, some are considered earned based on other data.
      
      • The College Ready seal is considered earned when a student's ACT or SAT scores reach the remediation free level.
      • The Honors Diploma seal is considered earned when the student's Diploma Type on the State/Province - OH page FN tab indicates an honors diploma.
      • The Industry-Recognized Credential seal is considered earned when a student has earned the minimum number of points in a career field based on Industry-Recognized Credential assessment data.
• The Permanent Requirements tab includes only Competency and Readiness tabs as students in the graduation class of 2023 and beyond must meet these requirements.
  • Click the arrow icon for Competency requirements. This is the same information as outlined in the Class of 2021 and 2022 tab.
  • Click the arrow icon for Readiness requirements. This is the same information as outlined in the Class of 2021 and 2022 tab.
    
    

• The ACT Reading uses Fiscal Year Began 9th Grade from the State/Province - OH page FN tab to determine if a passing score is 21 or 22 based on when the student first entered 9th grade for students graduating under the Legacy option.
• The Year of Graduation from the Scheduling Setup page is used to determine which rules to apply based on graduation year.
