Student Services
Thirty years ago, students who entered the
workforce right out of high school could still get a well-paying job that
allowed entry to the middle class. That time has passed. Finding and keeping a
job that pays well requires higher-order thinking skills—those that we want
every LAUSD student to learn. We want our LAUSD graduates to be ready for the
21st century workplace by making the high school diploma a document that gives
students the choice to transition straight into a California 4-year college or
into a career. LAUSD will implement the new graduation requirements in two
phases, beginning with the Class of 2016 by raising the standards for LAUSD
graduates by moving forward with implementation of A-G college-prep
requirements for LAUSD graduation as adopted in 2005. Raising the
current passing grade for A-G courses to a “C” or better for the graduating
Class of 2017 and beyond so students who apply to any public California
university can automatically be considered for admission.
