Synopsis :
This report examines trends, policy assumptions and tensions that key state education statutes and board requirements hold for high schools. The state policies considered are divided into three categories: policies specific to high schools, such as compulsory schooling, Carnegie Units and curriculum, and General Education Development - GED policies that detail opportunities to learn, such as teacher certification, student retention/promotion, and alternative schools policies that are new and in rapid flux, such as standards and accountability, assessment and high school exit tests.
