No more standards! California battle brews Nowhere is this contradiction more evident than in California. This year, 47,000 high school students, 10 percent of the high school population, have not passed the exit examinations required to graduate from high school. They can still enroll in many colleges, although they are no longer eligible for state tuition grants. State Sen. Deborah Ortiz, D-Sacramento, has proposed legislation to change that. "As long as the opportunity to go to college exists for students without a diploma, qualifying students from poor or low-income families should remain entitled to college financial aid," Ortiz said. detnews.com
