Graduate Requirement Obfuscation

At this point, the only thing I'm certain about the impending changes to Providence's graduation requirements and core curriculum is that what the administration is telling principals and teachers in the district, what they're telling the press and other people outside the district, and what's in the actual proposal before the board, are all different. This makes it rather difficult to generate a counter-argument. Given that they want the new graduation requirements to take effect for the current school year, leaving a very short time to explain what the real plan is once the board signs off, it is hard to see how this ends well.
