Starting in the 2024-2025 school year the new law requires the state board of education to create a three-year plan course guide for students.
The credit requirement is now lowered from the usual 28 credits necessary to now giving students the ability to graduate with just 22. Students who opt to graduate early would be required to take a sequence of courses to achieve 16 credits of core classes.
