What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, a school board may not grant a high school diploma to any

pupil unless the pupil has earned at least 4 credits of English, 3 credits of social

studies, 2 credits of science, 2 credits of mathematics, 1.5 credits of physical

education, and 0.5 credits of health education.

This bill authorizes a school board to grant a vocational high school diploma to

a pupil who has not earned the academic credits specified above but has earned a

sufficient number of credits in vocational subjects, as determined by the school

board, if the Department of Public Instruction has approved the school district's

vocational curriculum.
