Background:
Proposed revised Administrative Policy 7.32, Guidance Program, proposed revised Administrative Procedure 7.32(1), Guidance and Career Education Plan, and proposed revised Administrative Procedure 7.32(2) Guidance Program have been updated to reflect changes to School Counseling and Academic and Career Planning. Changes to policy 7.32 reflect the move from guidance to the comprehensive school counseling program and the current organizational structure.

Administrative Procedure 7.32(1) changes align to the state law requiring Academic and Career Planning for students in Wisconsin public schools. The procedure outlines requirements for the district Academic and Career Planning implementation plan and what will be addressed by the Academic and Career Planning process.

Revisions to Administrative Procedure 7.32(2), Career Guidance includes updates that reflect the move to a comprehensive school counseling program and Academic and Career Planning.

The Administration worked with the Office of the City Attorney and Office of Board Governance to finalize the proposed revisions.
