For each grade level, a curriculum would be established identifying the subjects to be mastered to complete that grade. These might include fifteen to twenty topics each for math, science, history, language arts, fine arts, etc. Students would choose a topic module (e.g., beginning algebra: how to solve an equation), attend the classes, take a test (which might be written or oral), and have that module signed off by the teacher. Modules may be taken in any order, and students need not attend class to have a skill signed off; that is, they may study on their own or test on prior experience. Once all requirements for a grade were completed, the student would be awarded a diploma for that grade. Students would no longer achieve "high school graduation," but would be a graduate of the grade completed with a diploma for each level of achievement. Dropouts would no longer exist because every student would be a diploma-holding graduate of the last grade he/she completed successfully.
