Overview: A recent Cherry Hill School Board meeting saw debate over a new African American Studies course requirement for students. A student voiced concerns that this mandate could disrupt their tailored academic schedule, which was designed to prepare them for college and future career aspirations. The student argued that requiring the course would force them to drop electives more aligned with their career goals, such as public speaking, an introductory computer science course, or a dual credit college class. This, they contended, limited flexibility and did not consider individual student interests. While acknowledging the importance of African American culture and history, the student suggested that the course should be optional rather than mandatory, especially since general history classes already cover a range of cultures.
