The Minnesota Graduation Standards , also known as the Profile of Learning and the Minnesota Academic Standards , created in 1998, were intended to raise standards of education for Minnesota high school students. The Minnesota Graduation Standards were developed to ensure minimum competence in survival skills for all Minnesota graduates from high school. The standards included two parts the Minnesota Statewide Assessments and the Minnesota Academic Standards. History Historically, Minnesota high schools awarded diplomas based on Carnegie Unit and Student Hour Carnegie units seat time requirements or course credits completed by students. Critics maintained that this system provided no statewide standards on subject content and no statewide assessment of what students learned. In the early 1990s, the Legislature , the Minnesota State Board of Education abolished in 1998 , and the Minnesota Department of Children, Families & Learning , now the Department of Education began working together to develop a more rigorous K 12 education system. The resulting graduation rule had two distinct components, the Basic Skills Tests and the Profile of Learning . To graduate, students had to do two things pass the Basic Skills Tests and successfully complete the minimum Profile of Learning standards requirements. Basic Skills Tests in reading activity reading , writing , and math were developed to ensure that students acquired the basic level of knowledge needed to function in a literate society. The Profile of Learning standards contained 10 learning areas, plus a requirement for vocational ... for graduation.
