Brenda Stanley, R-Midwest City, permits a school district to issue an alternate diploma to a student who meets the definition of a student with the most significant cognitive disabilities and who participates in the Oklahoma Alternate Assessment Program (OAAP) beginning in the 2023-2024 school year. It requires an alternate diploma be standards-based, aligned with requirements for a standard diploma, and obtained by the school year in which a student turns 22 years of age. It provides that an alternate diploma will not terminate a Free and Appropriate Public Education (FAPE) for students with an Individualized Education Program (IEP) unless they reach the maximum age of FAPE.

The bill permits students who meet requirements for an alternate diploma to count as having received a standard diploma for purposes of calculating and reporting the adjusted cohort graduation rate (ACGR).
