What is the Well-Rounded Course Access opportunity through IU? Join Mark Conrad at this informational session on Aug. 31 via Zoom. Register here: https://tinyurl.com/wrca831. The IDOE was awarded a five-year grant from the U.S. Department of Education to expand access to well-rounded courses for students across the state. IDOE has partnered with Indiana University (IU) to develop and implement a model for providing well-rounded educational opportunities through increased course access for all students, “including female students, minority students, English learners, children with disabilities, and low-income students who are often underrepresented in critical and enriching subjects” as determined by the grant. Well-rounded courses may include specialized courses, courses that are more rigorous than the regular curricula, career and technical education, or elective courses.
