| Proposed Changes to Chapter 4 Regulations - Impact on Graduation Requirements
The State Board of Education has proposed changes to the Chapter 4 regulations regarding high school graduation and the implementation of the Keystone Exams for Pennsylvania students. Before any regulatory changes take effect, a mandatory review process is conducted. The first step in the review process is a 30 day public comment period, which opened on October 6, 2012. The Independent Regulatory Review Commission (IRRC) receives public comment and makes recommendations for revision. After the IRRC review, State legislators have an opportunity to provide input. Click here for more information on the proposed regulations as well as a sample letter and contact information for the IRRC, local legislators and the State Board of Education. Letters and comments to the IRRC must be received by November 5, 2012. |
