Approve Career Pathways Articulation Agreement with The Art Institute of Tampa for Secondary Program Interior Design Services. (Curriculum and Instruction)

We request approval of a new Interior Design Services articulation agreement program with The Art Institute of Tampa that will provide high school students the opportunity to receive college credit for a completed Career Pathways Program of Study. For the past sixteen years, the School District has worked collaboratively with numerous postsecondary institutions in implementing Career Pathways Programs of Study. One major component of programs of study has been the establishment of articulation agreements allowing district secondary students the opportunity to enter degree-seeking programs at an advanced status. This articulation agreement allows students to earn three (3) or four (4) credits that apply to the Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) degree in Interior Design at The Art Institute of Tampa.

All District Goals and Critical Success Factors.

All district Career Pathways programs are FTE-earning and are included in the general operating budget.
