Subject: Information RE: External Diploma Program Diploma


I am seeking further information about the External Diploma Program (EDP).

EDP, a national program is sponsored in our district through Adult and
Continuing Education. How is it implemented through your public school
systems, continuing education programs, or possibly on college campuses? 

I understand the EDP diploma is a great option for many of our students who
cannot earn a diploma through the typical state testing/standards route
(e.g., students with disabilities, at risk, ESL)

Are you all familiar with it?

How do you-successfully-- get information about EDP out to the families of
children, especially children with disabilities, or who are culturally,
linguistically diverse?
