Education Plan and Profile
The Education Plan and Profile is a systematic plan and process that involves students in managing their own learning toward career and college readiness in grades 6-12. The Education Plan and Profile documents the student's progress and achievement toward career exploration, goals, personal accomplishments and graduation. In addition, the Ed Plan and Profile is required by statute (OAR 581-022-1130) as part of the Oregon Diploma.
