High level rules will stifle actual local ability. Would like state guidelines, not requirements. Concern about the cost of all the WASLs, requirements, etc. Concern that the CoM is a mistake because it belittles the last two years of high school. Concern about the problem of pushing some kids out of high school to Running Start.
Requirements are too hard for parents to understand.
Let the decision be made at the district or school level. Don t believe state guidelines should take away creativity of teachers. Can have general guidelines of competence. Maybe need to be tougher with grading so student progress is really measured. Concerned that means the state sets requirements because it could be difficult for districts, with a lot of student mobility, to meet the requirements.
