Students graduating from high school next spring will have new requirements in order to earn a diploma. Starting with the class of 2023, Pennsylvania students will need to demonstrate preparedness by completing requirements in college, career, and community readiness.
Alternative pathways include submitting SAT results or achieving industry certifications.
Also, even though students will no longer need to achieve proficiency on the Keystone Exams in order to graduate, they’ll still be required to take the tests for federal accountability purposes. State education officials say the goal is to ensure high school graduates are fully prepared for college and beyond.
