TO APPROVE REGULATIONS OF THE BOARD OF EDUCATION, RELATING TO ACCREDITATION STANDARDS FILED, DEFINED MINIMUM PROGRAM FOR SOUTH CAROLINA SCHOOL DISTRICTS, GRADES 9-12, VII, AND THE STATE HIGH SCHOOL EQUIVALENCY DIPLOMA, DESIGNATED AS REGULATION DOCUMENT NUMBER 1451, PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF ARTICLE 1, CHAPTER 23, TITLE 1 OF THE 1976 CODE.
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:
SECTION 1. The regulations of the Board of Education, relating to accreditation standards filed, defined minimum program for South Carolina school districts, Grades 9-12 VII, and the State High School Equivalency Diploma, designated as Regulation Document Number 1451, and submitted to the General Assembly pursuant to the provisions of Article 1, Chapter 23, Title 1 of the 1976 Code, are approved.
SECTION 2. This joint resolution takes effect upon approval by the Governor.
SUMMARY AS SUBMITTED BY PROMULGATING AGENCY.
This amended regulation changes eligibility requirements for the high school equivalency credential candidate in the GED testing program. With the recommendation from the Curriculum and Instructional Materials Committee and the K-12 Education Subcommittee, one phrase is deleted to allow more flexibility in the GED testing program by allowing South Carolina residents who are tested outside of the state to be eligible for a South Carolina credential.
