At the December 9th school board meeting, we addressed the board on the agenda item regarding our high school graduation requirements. Dr. Skelly proposed, and the board approved, a change to align our English and arts requirements with those of the UC/CSU system. The plan includes review of the math and world language requirements in 18 months. We applaud this progress and we will continue to work on this issue. On a related note, the San Francisco school board considered a proposal the same night, to fully align their graduation requirements.
