This young lady sounds rather accomplished, so I doubt a class called " Building Essential Skills for Tomorrow" is really something she needs.

However, it is worth noting that, if she were instead functionally illiterate from years of classes that made self-esteem a higher priority than being educated, the school would likely have set aside any standard to give her a meaningless diploma.

"This young lady sounds rather accomplished,... "

How could she be accomplished? According to most FReepers that's just not possible in a Public School.

I still have dreams of missing an entire subject for an entire semester. For her, it's real.

I think you might be on to something here. The title sounds innocent enough but knowing the influence of the communist NEA I can only imagine what "Skills for Tomorrow" means. I am sure it's pro UN, one world, socialist propaganda. She would have learned more things of value in the worthless PE class.
