Hastings Public Schools is considering raising Hastings Senior High School’s graduation requirement from 225 to 250 credits, with a strong emphasis on improving attendance, engagement, and credit recovery. The proposal, discussed at a May 2026 board work session and detailed in June 2026 correspondence, would apply beginning in the 2026–2027 school year, with the School Improvement Team and counseling staff supporting Option B for immediate implementation for current freshmen, sophomores, and juniors. The district highlights strengthened attendance monitoring, intervention practices, and summer school credit-recovery systems over the past several years, and plans to flag and support students who are behind on credits.This points to a continued or increased need for tools and services related to attendance analytics, early-warning systems, intervention tracking, and credit-recovery programs rather than a one-time purchase already decided. Vendors offering student information/analytics platforms, MTSS and intervention management tools, virtual or alternative credit-recovery curricula, and attendance engagement solutions could engage leadership around how to support these systems as the 250-credit requirement is rolled out and scaled.

Document repeatedly references improved attendance systems, intervention practices, and summer school credit-recovery, suggesting ongoing or expanding use of related tools and services but no specific vendor is named.
