  • What Is a Proficiency-Based Diploma? How It Works Want To
    Teach all students what they need to know. Make sure they have learned it. Give them the best possible chance to succeed in life. It’s that simple. Learn more about the New England Secondary School Consortium. What Is a Proficiency-Based Diploma? For more than a century, American high school students have earned “credits” for passing courses. When they accumulate enough credits, they receive a diploma. The problem with this approach is that credits do not always equal competency. Every year, students across the country graduate knowing calculus, while others struggle with basic arithmetic. Some leave with strong writing and research skills, while others are only minimally literate. Clearly, a high school diploma means very different things for different students. To make sure that every high school diploma certifies strong preparation for college, work, and life, the old system needs to change. In today’s world, a high school diploma has to mean something. That’s where the proficiency- based diploma comes in. How It Works 9 Learning standards enhance course credits. In the traditional high school system, one student may earn an A-plus while another earns a D-minus—and yet both students receive credit toward graduation. It’s possible for a student to earn only Ds and still graduate. But is this student prepared for adult life? How do we know what the student has learned or not learned? Unfortunately, many high schools simply cannot answer these basic questions—but a proficiency-based diploma will. 9 Standards ensure consistent learning expectations. In many high schools, each teacher decides how grades will be awarded.
