Summary of Position
The
League of Women Voters of Oklahoma (LWVOK) recommends that the legislature
review the expansive core requirements in HB 2886 to allow for options in
electives and options in meeting graduation requirements to reflect the values
of the local district.
The
LWVOK suggests that professional educators, legislators, and citizens work
together to decide the core graduation requirements necessary for all Oklahoma
students. The basic core requirements for high school graduation should
emphasize:
- math, including
the algebra course;
- science,
- government,
economics, and history; and
- language arts.
