[quote=Anonymous]If you look at the actual change being proposed, it's about getting rid of the weak "standard" requirements and making kids take the core subjects all four years of HS (as in the current advanced diploma) but with flexibility to do CTE instead of the full 3 years of world language required for the advanced diploma. The two diploma set up always seemed strange to me and in the presentation about this they noted that most states only have one diploma. They might offer added endorsements or other recognition for those families who feel slighted to lose the "advanced" label. I think VA DOEs math plan is pretty terrible but this change actually is about raising the bar for those kids who otherwise get through HS with just the weak standard diploma requirements.[/quote]
