Students in special education were given the option to earn an IEP diploma, which <a href=\"https:\/\/advocatesforchildren.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/afc_calls_for_reform_of_the_iep_diploma_pr_2007.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">despite its name<\/a>, was not a valid high school diploma and was not accepted by colleges, universities, or the military. Some school districts were using the IEP diploma to push students with disabilities out of school prematurely. After a series of conversations between Coalition members, individual members of the Board of Regents, and officials at the New York State Education Department (NYSED), the State eliminated the IEP diploma, effective July 1, 2013.\r\n\r\nIn January 2011, the State announced its intention to revisit New York\u2019s graduation requirements, and the Coalition decided to focus on graduation requirements and diploma options more broadly. At that time, the Coalition\u2019s membership began to expand. Currently, the Coalition is comprised of more than 60 advocacy organizations, educators, and families across New York State, representing a broad cross-section of students, including students with disabilities, English Language Learners (ELLs), and economically disadvantaged students.","":null,"settings":""}},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_list_of_links","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_list_of_links":{"heading":"","desc":"","links":[{"type":"internal","file":6681,"external_url":"","internal_page":6683,"title":"Recent activities and public comments","date":""},{"type":"download","file":6681,"external_url":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/DiplomaCoalition\/","internal_page":null,"title":"Read the Coalition's Statement of Purpose","date":""},{"type":"external","file":null,"external_url":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/DiplomaCoalition\/","internal_page":null,"title":"Follow the Coalition on Facebook","date":""}],"settings":{"":null,"settings":["disable-top-padding","disable-bottom-padding"]}}},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_wysiwyg","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_wysiwyg":{"content":"An Novanm 2019, Kons\u00e8y Regents ak Depatman Edikasyon Eta te lanse Faz 1 nan yon plan dezan pou reekzamine kondisyon pou gradyasyon nan Eta New York, ki gen ladan\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nysed.gov\/news\/2019\/board-regents-and-education-department-launch-phase-i-review-new-york-state-graduation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">plan pou konvoke yon Komisyon Blue Ribbon<\/a>\u00a0an 2020.
