Louisiana SB504 amends individual graduation plans to include vocational training opportunities.

Louisiana SB504 amends the state's education code to require that Individual Graduation Plans and Individualized Education Programs include vocational training opportunities in the student's school district. Parents or legal guardians of students entering the 11th grade can request updates to these plans to incorporate these opportunities. Schools must use existing staff and resources to implement these changes. The bill also mandates that any revisions to a student's plan must be approved in writing by the student's parent or legal guardian.
