Description of Proposed Guidance Document Changes
The Virginia Department of Education (VDOE) annually proposes updates to the Board of Education Approved Courses to Satisfy Graduation Requirements for the Standard, Advanced Studies, and Modified Standard Diplomas in Virginia Public Schools (Board Approved Courses) document. The proposed changes include the following: (1) adding two courses that satisfy graduation requirements, AP Pre-Calculus and AP Seminar for English (2) updating School Courses for the Exchange of Data (SCED) codes used to identify courses in which students are enrolled. (3) reordering courses within each content area by SCED code. (4) clarifying and updating language regarding state/federal testing and state graduation requirements. (5) deleting unnecessary or outdated content; and (6) improving accuracy, readability, and formatting. The proposed updates are necessary to ensure appropriate notation of course enrollments in the Master Schedule Collection (MSC) by school divisions and that appropriate credits are used to satisfy graduation requirements, as well as to clarify answers to common questions.
