CHEYENNE – The Wyoming State Board of Education (SBE) Profile of a Graduate Design Team will meet from 8 a.m.-noon on February 17 to continue its work on planning the processes for gathering public input for Phase 1 of the Profile of a Graduate project.

This project will define the knowledge, skills, and attributes students should have when they graduate from high school. The design team is made up from a broad stakeholder base, including education, business/industry, government, elected officials, and parents.

The team will hold a mock stakeholder listening session and finalize the format for the public sessions planned for March and April. The agenda can be found here. The public can join the meeting via Zoom using the Meeting ID: 91736504663 or dial in at 346-248-7799.

The public is also invited to join the Design Team at the SBE’s monthly meeting on February 25, 2021 for a presentation by a panel of high school graduates who will discuss their preparation for the opportunities and challenges each has faced after graduating.

Wyoming residents are encouraged to join the conversation now by posting a graduation photo to the SBE’s Facebook page and on Twitter, with a comment about what it means to be a Wyoming graduate, using the hashtag #WYOgrad. When posting to Twitter, participants should tag the SBE @WYStateBoardEd.
