Exciting Education Ruling

The Idaho House Education Committee approved a rule this morning (Feb. 3, 2010) that allows students to challenge classes. It reads:

“Students may also achieve credits by demonstrating mastery of a subject’s content standards as defined and approved by the social school district or LEA.” (Local Education Authority) This rule is found in 08-0203-0905 of the rule book.

This means that a student can study a topic area and ask to take a final exam. If the student can pass the final exam, then the student can get credit without attending the class.
