FREMONT, Neb. (AP) — Fremont students would have to learn more about the world and personal finance in order to graduate, under a proposed revision of district requirements.

The school board rendered its preliminary approval of the measure on Monday.

Darin Kelberlau is executive director of curriculum, instruction and assessment, and he told the board the revision is predicated in the district’s social studies state standards.

The proposed changes will affect the graduating class of 2019, which will be next fall’s freshman class. The revised policy wouldn’t include drastic changes for graduation, but it would require every student to take a couple of courses that previously could have been electives.
