SUMMARY AS SUBMITTED

BY PROMULGATING AGENCY.

This regulation amends Regulations 43-234, Defined Program 9-12. This regulation sets out a basic high school program including subjects, number of courses, periods weekly, minimum minutes, etc. This regulation amends and aligns Regulation 43-234 with the intent of the Education Accountability Act of 1998. The South Carolina General Assembly amended Section 59-39-100 (Issuance of Uniform Diplomas by Accredited High Schools, Units Required) of the South Carolina Code of Laws as amended, 1976, which now requires twenty-four units for a state high school diploma rather than twenty units. In addition, this regulation provides for amendments as per Section 59-39-190 (STAR Diploma)
