City OKs tough graduation rules in public school district
The city school board approved a resolution requiring two class units plus three to six more to earn a diploma, eliminating the general education option and mandating college preparatory or career curricula. About 30 percent had chosen the general diploma previously. The move, effective with the class of 1986, follows months of study by a task force. The board also reassigned ninth graders to high schools, agreed to remain a co-plaintiff in a major financing case, ratified two bargaining agreements, joined a state coalition for city districts, and approved Reading Is Fundamental funding for about $28,000 in free books.
