Story from NPR

About a third of Tennessee students who graduated from high school in 2015 did so without earning the necessary credits. That revelation came late last month in a report by the state's education department — a report meant to explore why so many Tennessee students are having trouble in college.

that one in three high school graduates hadn't fulfilled the 
state's graduation requirements.

My son is a chip off the old block!  He has been writing for the East Tennessean, the student newspaper at East Tennessee State University.  He graduates in May with a degree in digital media/game design.
