I am familiar with the list of state-required subjects at the elementary and secondary levels, but it has always been my understanding that not every subject has to be taught every year/grade. For example, teaching PA history at least once during elementary and at least once during secondary is common and acceptable. The same for subjects like health and geography.
However, I have a friend in a PA school district which requires her to show evidence that she has taught every subject every year, and this is burdensome on her.
Does her school district have the legal right to demand that?
