Overview
The High School and Beyond Plan (HSBP) is a robust and structured program which helps to prepare students for life after high school. It is both a Washington state and Lake Washington School District graduation requirement. In LWSD, we use the Xello program to assist us in meeting the goals of this graduation requirement.
Throughout each year of students’ high school career, they will be responsible for independently completing different components of their HSPB under the guidance of our HSBP Coordinator, Nikole Lalas. If students or parents have questions about the HSBP requirements, they can reach Nikole Lalas by using the contact information below.
