We are going to do everything we can to offer the same opportunities we offered last summer. The issue isn't that (students) won't have the option, the issue is how do we fund it so that they do have the option.
An incoming ninth-grader who hasn't passed algebra is certainly at risk of failing the exit exam.
Until we know what the kids have signed up for and who they are, there's no way to know how much it will cost.
I honestly don't know what the motivation was for the change, because we still have kids that failed a class and need to recover the credit and didn't fail the exit exam.
