2022 Utah Rural Schools Conference

Since the passing of HB 417 last month, high schools with fewer than 1,000 students can keep full WPU any time their students enroll in an any SOEP course. The cost of the SOEP course will be covered by the state, without impacting the school's WPU for that student. Starting in Fall 22, your students can sign up for an online class with a UT certified teacher to accelerate their progress, remediate a credit, or take an elective that interests them. Further, your school can partner with ASU Prep Digital Powered by Juab School District to offer an online version of a course to your students that you have not been able to staff on-site. In this session, we'll talk about the steps for students to enroll in a free online course, what they can expect from the course and teacher, and how ASU Prep Digital and Juab School District have worked together to ensure high student achievement alongside academic integrity.
