Section 392-725-120. Demonstration and reporting of evidence of required college in the high school standards.

(1) Participating institutions of higher education shall provide evidence that they meet the most recent National Alliance of Concurrent Enrollment Partnerships student standards, curriculum and assessment standards, faculty standards and evaluation standards unless recommended differently in WAC 392-725-130 through 392-725-160. National Alliance of Concurrent Enrollment Partnerships accreditation is recommended.

(2) As a condition of eligibility pursuant to WAC 392-725-015(3), after the college in the high school course concludes, institutions of higher education shall provide an annual report consisting of evidence that the required standards were met, consistent with the evidence National Alliance of Concurrent Enrollment Partnerships requires to meet standards. The annual report shall be submitted no later than July 1st for review by the college in the high school standards report review committee. Participating institutions of higher education that are accredited by the National Alliance of Concurrent Enrollment Partnerships for the current year of enrollment will be exempt from this requirement.

(3) The office of superintendent of public instruction shall convene a college in the high school standards report review committee. This review committee will consist of a representative of the state board of community and technical colleges, a representative of the council of presidents, a representative of the student achievement council, and a representative from the office of superintendent of public instruction. Additional members may be included at the discretion of college in the high school standards report review committee.

(4) The review committee will no later than August 15th advise the institution of higher education whether the required standards have been met.

(5) If the review committee finds that the institution of higher education's evidence of meeting the required standards is not satisfactory, the institution of higher education will have no more than six months to provide satisfactory evidence. During this period, the program will be under provisional status until evidence shows the program has met the standards.

(6) If after review of the additional evidence, the review committee deems that the standards are not being met, then the institution of higher education may not offer the college in the high school program for the following school year.

(7) The review committee will review the National Alliance of Concurrent Enrollment Partnerships standards every three years and update the college in the high school standards in WAC 392-725-130 through 392-725-160 as informed by the current National Alliance of Concurrent Enrollment Partnerships standards and feedback from participating school districts, charter schools, tribal compact schools, and institutions of higher education.
