Gov. Beshear at Central Hardin High to Sign New Law

And Gov­er­nor Beshear was in the area yes­ter­day, sign­ing into law a bill allows stu­dents with dis­abil­i­ties to earn an alter­na­tive high school diploma, instead of a cer­tifi­cate of com­ple­tion. The gov­er­nor was joined by school offi­cials and stu­dents for the sign­ing at Cen­tral Hardin High School in Cecilia. He said “This new leg­is­la­tion rec­og­nizes that stu­dents with dis­abil­i­ties have the same desire to earn a high school diploma as their peers do. This makes that pos­si­ble for them.”
