This year’s eighth-grade students will have a whole new set of rules to keep in mind when it comes to obtaining a diploma. Bremen School Board members learned more about these changes when they met this week.
Superintendent Dr. Jim White said that officials from Bremen High School presented information to board members on Monday.
He stated, “The guidance counselors and the principals informed the board of the new graduation requirements in detail, talking about the graduation pathways and what it’s going take to help kids matriculate through and successfully gain a diploma in 2023.
Dr. White said that the pathways are already in place and available to current students although they weren’t required for this year. However, the 2019 freshman class will need to satisfy certain Graduation Pathway Requirements in order to graduate on time in 2023.
According to the State Board of Education, those requirements include meeting the statutorily defined diploma credit and curricular requirements as well as learning and demonstrating employability skills and showing postsecondary-ready competencies.
