Mt. Hope Graduation Requirements Top Agenda of School Committee

Presentations on Mt. Hope High School's graduation requirements, the program of studies and a Wireless Classroom Initiative Grant will be made at the meeting of the Bristol-Warren Regional School Committee tonight, Jan. 13.

The meeting starts at 7 pm. It will be held in the cafeteria of the high school on Chestnut Street in Bristol.

Administrators at the high school will make the presentations. In particular, they will explain the graduation requirements that involve at least partial proficiency on the NECAP assessment test and alternate options to meet that requirement if they are unable to meet NECAP requirements.

There is a policy for waiving the NECAP requirements. Click here to see the waiver on the Bristol-Warren schools website. 

The program of studies for the 2014-2015 school year will include new options for students to help them meet the graduation requirements.
