Well, this sucks.

So in school I am taking a high school English 1 class even though I am in eighth grade. Normally this would mean that I would get a high school credit for English 1 and not have to take it next year in ninth grade. However, Louisiana government recently passed the Every Student Succeeds Act, or ESSA. Due to regulations set in place by the act, nobody in the state of Louisiana can receive high school credit for English 1 classes, which is bad because the kids that are taking English 1 in eighth grade in Louisiana will have to take the class again in ninth grade. Kinda defeats the purpose of having a high school class in middle school doesn't it?

if it's the same exact thing, you can just save all your stuff, and then next year, it'll be an easy credit

Cant you inquire the principle about this, there shouldn't be a need to repeat a class if you have successfully passed it, similar thing kind of happened to me with algebra 1 but I couldn't do anything about it and had to re-take it even if I was told I was the highest in that class.

@keven3477 the government said that if the schools don't abide by the new regulations then they'll lose funding

But cant you ask if you could not take the English class then and choose another class for that period.

I feel for ya. Apparently, the people up in charge don't understand that you're supposed to give help to the students who need it, not hold back the students who are obviously doing better than average.
