New Michigan Merit Requirements 4 Credits For Language Arts 4 Credits For Mathematics 3 Credits For Science 3 Credits For Social Studies 2 Credits For Foreign Language 1 Credit For Health 1 Credit For The Arts TOTAL:  18 Credits
How Does This Affect Students? Cover more difficult topics at a younger age. More pressure to do well in classes. Smaller number of class choices. Less variety in courses.
How Does This Affect Students? (con.) Less opportunities for students interested in: Music  Health Nutrition Business Life Skills and Development
Classes in the Elective category are just as important as Core Subject Curriculum classes in preparing students for the future.
How Does This Affect Teachers? Limited job opportunities for future elective course teachers. Potential threat to existing elective teaching positions. Potential loss of current teachers jobs.
Importance of Electives Business Many Jobs. Prepare for college. Music Students are passionate about it. Large part of our culture. Health and Nutrition Good knowledge to promote healthy lifestyles. Life Skills Prepare students for real life experiences.
What is being done to help? Government sees no problems with requirements. Many elective teachers stepping up. Promote awareness of the importance of elective classes. Present Future…
