Public & Private Options
WI Act 55, which was passed in 2015, requires school districts across the state of Wisconsin to provide information to parents/guardians regarding district standards; report cards; public and private school options; course options; and youth options. This webpage is dedicated to providing the Watertown Unified School District families with this information.

Early College Credit Program (ECCP)
The 2017 Wisconsin Act 59 eliminated the Course Options and Youth Options programs.The Course Options statute was changed to Part-time open enrollment. The Youth Options statute (118.55) was renamed the Early College Credit Program (ECCP). The ECCP statute allows Wisconsin public and private high school students to take one or more courses at an institution of higher education for high school and/or college credit. Under this section, “institution of higher education” means an institution within the University of Wisconsin System, a tribally controlled college, or a private, nonprofit institution of higher education located in the state. While technical colleges are not eligible institutions under the new program, pupils that have completed 10th grade will continue to have the option to take courses at technical colleges through a separate statute, 38.12(14). School districts should contact the Wisconsin Technical College System listed below for more information on technical college dual credit options. All changes are effective 7/1/2018.
