Recommendations: A-G GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS, STANDARDS BASED PROMOTION AND HOMEWORK POLICY

from the Office of the Deputy Superintendent of Instruction

The following PowerPoint was presented to the LAUSD Bd of Ed Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment Committee on March 27, 2012, laying out results from some unscientific online polling and various taskforces studying A-G Graduation Requirements, Standards Based Promotion and Homework Policies.

You may view the video stream of the presentation here.  [You must have QuickTime to watch or listen to a meeting.]

The PowerPoint  contains some specific recommendations to the board beginning on pp 11 – and proposes to eliminate the Health Education graduation requirement on p. 13. 

smf: I will write elsewhere about my poor opinion of this bad idea; some of my thinking is spoken in public comment at the meeting.
