Rationale

All three of the above courses are ADE approved CTE courses with a minimum requirement of at least a 51% lab based curriculum. These classes consist of 60%-80% lab work. As approved CTE courses; these classes are able to be applied as either a lab science or a practical art (depending on the needs of the student).†

We have also attached the ADE constructed crosswalk of the new science standards with the new agriculture standards to show the alignment of the agriculture courses with the science†standards.
