2014 House Bill 5793

House Roll Call 488: Passed

To clarify that the foreign language requirement in the state’s graduation requirements only applies to student who entered 3rd grade in 2006 or later or later (a cohort who generally would graduate in 2016). Reportedly this is to correct an error in a law enacted <a href="http://www.michiganvotes.org/2013-HB-4465">earlier in 2014</a> that lowered some of the graduation standards.
