As states implement the American Diploma Project (ADP) Network policy agenda, parents, educators and others often have concerns about whether these policies are the right ones and whether it's fair to expect all students to meet the same rigorous graduation requirements. This section is designed to better prepare advocates to answer these concerns. You'll find fact sheets, PowerPoints and bibliographies of resources on issues such as:

• Do all students need a college-prep curriculum?
• Do all students need challenging math in high school?
• Requiring readiness: Can all students benefit?
• Will raising high school graduation requirements cause more students to drop out?
• If we raise standards in high school, won’t students become more disengaged?
