CONCORD — The state has passed a new rule allowing people to earn high school graduation credits for learning through non-school education programs. But the "Learn Everywhere" program has drawn the ire of the New Hampshire chapter of the National Education Association, which questions whether those "credits" will meet education standards.
An aspiring actor, dancer or musician performing in an arts program; a student receiving afterschool math tutoring at the Boys and Girls Club; a part-time internship at the local manufacturing company that leads to acquired skills. New Hampshire students truly learn everywhere but they don’t always earn credits toward graduation for the time they spend expanding their knowledge outside of the standard school day.
