3. Additional Elective Focus Area

Rationale:
The Tennessee Diploma Project states that one requirement for graduation is completing an elective focus of three courses. The Diploma Project lists several areas of focus then adds "or other area approved the the local Board of Education." We propose that Marshall County Schools add intervention elective courses as a choice for elective focus for our high school students needing Tier III Math and ELL Intervention. The Tennessee Department of Education is recommending that local education agencies add this elective focus to support learners struggling with skill deficits in reading, writing, and math.
