Along with satisfying the course requirements listed in Policy 217, students must also satisfy the Keystone Exam requirements established by the Pennsylvania Department of Education in Act 158 of 2018. Students are expected to take the Keystone exams that are associated with the identified NCASD Keystone Courses (Algebra I, Biology, Literature 10). If a successful score is not obtained on any of the Keystone exams (Pathway #1), students can meet the graduation requirement through one of the pathways described in #2 through #4 in the attached letter.
