Bill overview
This bill modifies the requirements for a high school diploma in Michigan, primarily focusing on mathematics and language requirements. It mandates that students complete a specific number of credits in mathematics, including algebra I, geometry, and algebra II, potentially with alternative pathways like career and technical education. Additionally, it requires students to fulfill language requirements, including at least two credits in a language other than English, and encourages the inclusion of these credits throughout K-12 education. The bill also addresses the possibility of ‘specialty schools’ that may have modified diploma requirements.
