[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OK, parent of an ES kid here and this is the first I am hearing about this but it sounds  stupid. Hopefully it is gone in 4 years and we don't have to deal with it.

So my kid could have to blow electives on taking two course that are sequential even if he doesn't like an intro elective and wants to try something else? What the hell?

What is the logic behind this?

Kids take all of their core classes in sequence, what is the point of forcing electives in sequence? What is the educational reason for requiring this?[/quote]HA! You think that is crazy, what about the fact that they are also REQUIRED to take one VIRTUAL course in High School![/quote]

That virtual class is Econ & Personal Finance. Even if you take it at school it has a virtual component so everyone gets that.[/quote] Why don't they just state that ONLY Econ and Personal Finance is required? Yet BOTH are on the requirements Econ Person al Finance and one virtual course.... Seems silly that both are listed as requirements.  My kid is taking the Econ personal Finance in the summer(all virtual) so I guess that checks the box(or boxes??)[/quote]

It's definitely silly. I always figured that virtual thing was in there due to lobbying from some ed tech company,[/quote]
