[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let's force MCPS to demonstrate the added value of Health B.  If they can't prove it, it needs to go away.  How do we compare to other districts?  We have new MCPS leadership, so this is presumably a good time to raise it.[/quote]

MCPS can't make it go away, it's a Maryland state requirement now. [/quote]

Does the state require that it be repetitive? Does it stipulate what both semesters must cover? How about including some actual info on health beyond mental health, sexual health and substance use. How about basic first aid? CPR? [/quote]

So they don’t need to repeat the same content in B as they did in A. [/quote]
