 Senator Mark Mullet's IB crediting bill - ESB 5917 - was signed into law by Governor Jay Inslee this March, marking the end of a long journey for IB Coordinators Ken Joling and David Quinn. Working with Senator Mullet and Representatives Laurie Dolan, Tina Orwall, and Gerry Pollet, our local IB Coordinators helped to write - and pass - this legislation that grants SL and HL credit for every IB class offered at public institutions in the state. NIBA is so very thankful for the leadership of Lt. Gov Cyrus Habib and Superintendent Chris Reykdal for, once again, working on behalf of IB students all over Washington. The final language of the bill is below. It takes effect on June 7, 2018 and it first applies to students in the Class of 2018. All public state post-secondary institutions - from community colleges to universities - must publish their new IB crediting policies by this fall.
