Summary

Starting in the 2028‑29 school year, students entering 9th grade can meet the two‑year foreign‑language graduation requirement by completing two years of state‑approved career‑focused coursework instead. Public universities may not require foreign‑language credits unless they also accept the College and Career Pathway Endorsement. A counselor‑guided process lets students and parents request an exemption, with required meetings, written acknowledgment, and a course plan.
