[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sigh. According to the metric here, students will have to achieve an “Industry Recognized Credential” to demonstrate completion, even if the focus is music performance or art. What job-related certification do we give them for being a sculptor or a dancer or a trumpet player? This is the triumph of educational bureaucracy box-checking over actual education. Meanwhile, we’re passing along and graduating kids who can barely read. [/quote] MCPS put entrepreneurship and marketing classes into all the arts pathways. Those are the credentials they want those kids to earn. It’s not a terrible idea but MCPS is being so shady about it. Just be honest about it. Tell families that the state is pushing for kids to get certifications and ask which ones kids might want. [/quote]
